Drinking plenty of water and staying hydrated is a great way to regulate digestion. People who support a water flush for colon cleansing recommend drinking six to eight glasses of lukewarm water per day. Also try eating plenty of foods high in fiber & water content. This includes fruits and vegetables like watermelons, tomatoes, lettuce, and celery.

I'm really concerned about something I've been experiencing for the past six months. Every morning during bowel movements, I feel like something is getting stuck at the end of my anal area. Today, I took a picture of my anal region and noticed a swelling in one corner that seems like it might be a sentinel pile fissure. What could this possibly be, and what should I do next?

For rib pain, consider consulting: 1. General Physician (GP) for initial evaluation. 2. Orthopedic Specialist for musculoskeletal issues. 3. Gastroenterologist for possible gastrointestinal causes. 4. Pulmonologist for lung-related issues. If the pain is severe, sudden, or accompanied by breathing difficulties, seek emergency care.

I've been doing annual medical tests and noticed that my Bilirubin levels are always high. Aside from that, everything else seems fine. My recent test results showed a Total Bilirubin of 2.57, with 0.63 Direct and 1.94 Indirect. Also, my 25OH Vitamin D Total is really low at 8.99 ngml, while the normal range is 30-100 ngml. Is this something to worry about? Do I need to make any changes? I already practice yoga for about 10 hours a week. What do you think?

May be you have congenital hyperbiliubinemia. Vitamin D supplementation is required

I've been noticing fresh blood when I pass stool, and this happens for about four to five days every month. What could be causing this, and are there any effective treatments that don't involve surgery?

Fresh blood with stools for few days each month may indicate hemorrhoids or fissure‚Äînon-surgical options include fiber intake, sitz baths, and ointments like nifedipine.
