I'm a bit worried because my stool test showed 12 HPF pus cells and an acidic pH. The CRP level is 1.5 and I'm not quite sure what this means, but I read that it's within the normal range. Could these results indicate some kind of bowel issue, and should I be concerned about something more serious? What steps should I take next?

I've been experiencing pain in my rectum for about a month now, especially when I'm passing stool. It's really uncomfortable and I'm worried about what might be causing it. What could this issue be, and what type of doctor should I reach out to?
Rectal pain can have many causes, including hemorrhoids, anal fissures, constipation, infections, or even more serious conditions like abscesses or inflammatory bowel disease. It's important to consult with a gastroenterologist or proctologist for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan. In the meantime, focus on gentle self-care methods like warm sitz baths, increasing fiber intake, and avoiding straining.

I've been having really bad gas pain and back pain lately and the USG showed multiple gallstones with the largest one being 0.44cm in my gallbladder. Is there any medicine that can dissolve these stones instead of surgery and if so how long would it take to work
Multiple gallstones detected via ultrasound can definitely cause the type of gas and back pain you're experiencing. The pain is likely due to the gallstones blocking the bile ducts, which is a condition called biliary colic. It's important to consult with a doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment, as gallstones can lead to more serious complications if left untreated.
