I'm currently applying cremagel cream for an anal fissure, and I'm really worried about what to do if it doesn't get better after using this ointment. What is the best way to heal a fissure if it doesn't worsen after these treatments?

I've had a moderate hiatus hernia for a few years and take a tablet every morning for acidity. I've been on these meds for three years now and worry about long-term side effects. Is there a good alternative to Sompraz L that's safer for daily use? I don't want surgery since multiple endoscopies and doctors say it's not needed yet, but I'm concerned about how these meds might affect my health over time. Any suggestions for a safer long-term option?
For long-term management of hiatal hernia-related acidity, a safer alternative to Sompraz L could be a combination of lifestyle changes, H2 receptor blockers, or even trying shorter courses of PPIs with breaks to monitor symptom recurrence. It's crucial to discuss these options with your doctor to determine the best approach for your specific situation

So I just got my full body check-up done at the health camp at work, and I'm 39, by the way. All my tests were pretty standard - blood tests and ECG and all that. The results seemed okay, but I noticed my alkaline phosphatase levels are high. The thing is, I feel fine and don't have any issues that I'm aware of. Could you tell me what symptoms might show up with high alkaline phosphatase?
A high alk phos level occurs when there is a blockage of flow in the biliary tract or a buildup of pressure in the liver--often caused by a gallstone or scarring in the bile ducts.
