I'm a couple of days post-operation for piles and now I'm dealing with a fever, along with some cold symptoms and body pain. Is this something that just happens sometimes, or should I be worried that it's more serious?

Bathing after eating fruits like mango and banana is generally safe.

No specific gap is required, but consider:

  1. Digestion time: Wait at least 30-60 minutes after eating to allow for digestion.
  2. Blood sugar levels: Fruits like mango and banana can cause a temporary spike in blood sugar. Bathing shortly after may lead to:
    • Dizziness
    • Lightheadedness
    • Shivering

To be cautious:

  1. Wait 1-2 hours after eating fruits before bathing.
  2. Take a warm shower instead of a cold bath to avoid shocking your system.

No serious health issues will arise from bathing after eating fruits. However, being mindful of digestion time and blood sugar levels can ensure a comfortable bathing experience.

I've had an umbilical hernia since June 2015 after delivery. There's no pain but my belly button sticks out and makes me look like I'm still 4-5 months pregnant. What can I do to manage this without surgery? I'm 31 and really want to avoid an operation if possible.

a non-surgical approach might be possible, it's important to consult with your doctor to determine the best course of action for your specific situation. A "watch and wait" approach might be recommended for small, asymptomatic hernias, but surgery is usually recommended for larger, symptomatic hernias. If you choose not to have surgery, strengthening your abdominal muscle
