I'm a 40-year-old male and for the past week, I've been noticing mucus discharge from my anus without any stool, just liquid mucus. I do have some gastric and digestion issues but no other problems like fever, BP, diabetes, injuries, or surgeries. What could be causing this and what treatment would you suggest?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Rectal mucus discharge without stool, along with existing gastrointestinal issues, could be related to conditions like irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), hemorrhoids, or even certain infections. It's crucial to consult a doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment, as the underlying cause needs to be determined

View allI've been dealing with this weird stomach pain that kinda comes and goes since yesterday. It's like it'll hurt for a bit, stop, and then start again later. I already tried taking Pudhin Hara twice, but honestly, it didn't seem to help. What could be going on, and should I try something else or see a doctor?
Since the pain has been persisting for a day or more, its important to keep track of your symptoms. If the pain continues or is accompanied by other troubling symptoms (like nausea, vomiting, or fever), its best to see a healthcare provider for a proper diagnosis. They can help identify the cause of your stomach pain and recommend the appropriate treatment.

I've been on Flagyl 400 for the past three days after my gastroenterologist prescribed it, but now my sore throat's gotten worse, especially when I eat. Could this be because of the Flagyl? What should I do about the sore throat?
no sore throat is not a side effect of flagyl

I'm having some trouble with gastric issues and I'm trying to figure out if itopride is a safe option. Also, are the modes of action for itopride and levosulpride the same or are there some differences I should be aware of?
itopride is primarily used for gastrointestinal motility issues and has fewer neurological side effects. Levosulpiride is also used for gastrointestinal issues but can affect mood and has stronger sedative effects at higher doses due to its impact on dopamine and serotonin.Both drugs block dopamine D2 receptors, but Itopride also has cholinergic effects, stimulating acetylcholine release to aid digestion. This may make Itopride somewhat more specific for treating GI conditions. Levosulpiride, in addition to its prokinetic effects, has a neuropsychiatric effect, which makes it more effective for treating conditions like anxiety or depression at higher doses
