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?

You know, I've been taking Rinifol since my doctor said I have IBS Diarrhoea and it worked really well for about a month. Is it safe to use Rinifol for a long time, like for life, or is there anything I should be worried about?

I'm feeling really embarrassed because every time I eat, especially at breakfast, I get this buildup of phlegm in my throat that I need to spit out. It's been happening for a while and it's awkward for people around me. I've been treated for GERD with medicines like Rabiym DSR, and for allergies with Monteluksut and Fex. But it still doesn't seem to be getting better. Do you know what might be causing this or how I could improve the situation?

take tablet mucinac for 5 days twice a day

I've noticed what seems like blood in my stool, and it's kind of worrying me. There's no blood when I wipe, and I only see it under the stool after it's been in the toilet for a while, almost like it's coming from inside. It's bright red right around the stool, but then it changes to this orange-yellow color further out. Should I be concerned about this?

whether there is blood or not in the stool you can get stool for occult blood test.
