I'm dealing with an ulcer that's been bothering me for the past 24 days. Can you let me know how often I should be using Dologel each day? I'm just trying to make sure I'm doing it right.

Dologel should be applied directly to the affected area using a clean fingertip. It is recommended to apply a thin layer of Dologel over the ulcer 3-4 times a day, after meals and at bedtime. Make sure not to eat or drink anything for at least 30 minutes after applying Dologel to allow it to properly adhere to the ulcer and provide relief.

I'm experiencing some issues and could really use some advice. Every time I masturbate, I end up with gastric and digestive problems. It's puzzling and a bit concerning. On top of that, my skin has gotten rough, and I've noticed a few small pimples popping up. I've been having this habit for a long time, around 67 years, and now do it about once a week. I'm really trying to break this cycle, but I keep failing. Can you help me understand what's going on and suggest what I should do?

I've noticed that every now and then, after I eat, I get this feeling of suffocation where it's hard to breathe, even when I make sure to eat my food slowly. It's starting to worry me and I just can't figure out why it's happening. Could it be something serious, or maybe just how I'm eating? Any advice on what might be going on would be really helpful.

I'm using 10ml of this syrup at night for my fissure, as my doctor suggested for two weeks. It's been 8 days now and I feel like it's getting better. Once I hit the two-week mark, can I stop taking it all of a sudden, or do I need to cut down slowly over a few days? I'm also curious if using it for two weeks is too long. What do you recommend?
