I'm experiencing a burning sensation after I pass stools, and it's happened twice just last week. The stool seems normal, and it's usually after I've had some spicy food. Should I be worried about this, or is it just the spicy food causing it?

Chondromalacia patella, also known as runner's knee, is a condition where the cartilage on the underside of the kneecap deteriorates and becomes soft. Unfortunately, chondromalacia patella is not permanently curable .
The good news is that symptoms can be managed with treatment, and in some cases, people can experience significant relief. However, the condition can be progressive, meaning it can worsen over time if not properly managed.
Given that you've been under treatment for over a year and haven't experienced the desired relief, it may be worth exploring alternative treatment options or seeking a second opinion from a specialist.
In terms of adjusting your lifestyle, it's great that you're thinking proactively. Considering your history with sports, you may need to modify your activities to reduce stress on your knee joint. Low-impact exercises like cycling or swimming might be more suitable options for you.

View allI've been dealing with this issue where I'm producing way too much saliva every day, and it's been going on for years. It's like I constantly need to spit, and if I try to swallow it, I start feeling nauseous. I also get this urge to burp a lot. I work out regularly and stay away from smoking and drinking. It's really getting on my nerves having to spit all the time. Any idea what might be causing this or how to make it stop?
Excessive salivation, along with frequent burping and nausea, can be frustrating, but it's important to identify the underlying cause in order to find the right treatment. Start by considering common causes such as GERD, oral health issues, or stressanxiety. You might also want to speak to a healthcare professional, such as a gastroenterologist or ENT specialist, to help pinpoint the cause and explore appropriate treatment options.

I'm really struggling with my motions. For the past month, I've needed to go at least three times a day, and it's becoming quite an issue. Since I've been going to the gym for about a year and a half, I had to up my food intake, and it seems like that's when the motion problems started. I also have a gastric problem, and even though my digestion seems fine, I just constantly feel like I need to go. It's been tough to eat because of this sensation. Can you help me figure out what's going on and what I might need to change to feel better?
