I'm dealing with a chronic constipation issue that's been ongoing for about a year now. I've been taking Lectihep syrup and Pegmove to try and fix it, but neither seems to be doing the trick. I'm only able to have a bowel movement every five days. Can you give me some advice on how I can find some relief or suggest any home treatments that might help?

Consider combining dietary changes, lifestyle modifications, and supplements to manage chronic constipation; increase fiber intake through foods like whole grains, fruits, and vegetables, and consider adding psyllium husk or methylcellulose fiber supplements; also, try drinking warm water, exercising regularly, and establishing a consistent bowel routine;

I've got a sgpt level of 52 and was told my liver is fatty grade 1. Is this something I should be worried about? Do I need to be on any medication?

NOT TO WORRY CHANG IN DIET N LIFE STYLE CAN REVERT ALL. NO BAD HABITS, LIGHT DIET WITH LEAST OIL N SPICES, WALKING BRICK FOR 40 MIN FIVE DAYS IN A WEEK HELPS ALOT. PLENTY OF GLUCOSE, BUTTER MILK FRESH, FRESH CURD NIMBUPANI MOSAMBI JUICE WATERMELON ETC ARE VERY BENIFICIAL.

I thought I might have hemorrhoids because I've been taking phentermine for weight loss and heard that could be a side effect. It started with my anus being swollen and painful during bowel movements, and it's been like this for over a week now. But just now, I noticed a green, booger-like discharge from my anus. I took a picture to get a better idea of what's happening, and it looks like there's a blister down there. It's really painful around the blister and the surrounding area. I'm a bit freaked out because it shouldnt be an STDIm married and was just tested not too long ago. There's only this one blister. It's red around the edges and white on top. I really don't know what's going on. Any advice?
