Question 1

I'm having a real rough time with loose motion that just doesnt seem to go away. It's like my body's not digesting food properly. I tried taking O2 Tablets and Pan 40, and they seemed to help for a little bit, but now the problem is back. Every time I feel the urge, I end up with loose stools again. What should I do?

Accepted Answer

use medicine

Question 2

I've been dealing with hard stools and recently got a painful pimple in my butt crack that hurts every time I use the toilet. It went away after about two weeks but seems to have come back after a month. I drink a cup of coffee daily and I've been doing this for the past 8 years. Could coffee be causing this issue? I also have seasonal allergies and have been taking levocetirizine 5mg daily for about 3 years. Could either of these be contributing to my problems?

Accepted Answer

The recurring painful pimple in the butt crack, accompanied by hard stools, could be related to anal fissures, hemorrhoids, or perianal abscesses, potentially exacerbated by chronic constipation, straining during bowel movements, or irritation from coffee consumption; levocetirizine may also contribute to dry, hard stools, so consider consulting a gastroenterologist

Question 3

I get really nauseous and start vomiting whenever I travel, especially on long journeys. It's incredibly uncomfortable and makes traveling difficult for me. Are there any remedies or tips to help with this issue?

Accepted Answer

To alleviate travel-induced vomiting, also known as motion sickness, try these remedies: 1) choose a seat in the front or middle of the vehicle, 2) keep your eyes on the horizon, 3) avoid reading or screens, 4) take motion sickness medication like dimenhydrinate (Dramamine) or meclizine (Bonine) 30 minutes before travel, 5) use acupressure bands or ginger-based products, 6) avoid heavy meals before travel, and 7) try relaxation techniques like deep breathing or meditation;
