I'm dealing with jaundice right now, and I've been feeling the urge to masturbate more often. I'm worried and curious if it's okay to masturbate while having jaundice. Are there any risks or side effects I should be aware of if I continue?

I'm dealing with some pretty uncomfortable abdominal pain and cramps that sometimes spread to my back. I just bounced back from a stomach infection, but now it feels like this pain is sticking around. I've heard of normaxin tablets for this kind of issue. Do you think it's a good option for me, or should I go a different route? Its really making things tough for me.

I've had an anal fissure for a couple of years and currently manage it with a diet low in non-veg and more fruits like apples and guavas. Is surgery unavoidable in the long run? I really want to control it naturally what would you suggest?

While a naturally managed approach to anal fissures is great, surgery isn't always unavoidable and depends on the severity and duration of the fissure. A good diet, hydration, and regular exercise can often help, but chronic or non-responsive fissures might require further treatment, including surgery.
