Patient's question:
The digestion has improved, and there are occasional farts. Recently, he has been farting less, and for the past few months, he has been adding sweet potatoes to his meals every time he eats. (He had stomach cancer surgery ten months ago. On the 15th, he just finished blood tests and ultrasound at Xiangya Affiliated Hospital in Changsha and is awaiting the follow-up results. The ultrasound showed no issues with his kidneys. Since returning, he has started experiencing some pain. He used to have problems with lumbar disc herniation, but it hasn't flared up for a long time.)Doctor's answer:
