I'm having this ongoing itching issue around my anus, and it's been quite a while now. I tried taking Bandy Plus, but it hasn't helped. The itching gets worse when I'm walking. Any idea what's going on or what I can do about it?

View allI've been having some trouble with my anal area lately. It feels like it gets really tight and ends up hurting during bowel movements. It almost feels like the walls are tearing. What could be causing this, and how can I make it better?
The symptoms you're describing, including a narrowing of the anal opening, pain during bowel movements, and anal tears, suggest a possible diagnosis of anal stenosis or anal fissures; consult a gastroenterologist, proctologist, or a general surgeon for a thorough examination, which may include a digital rectal exam, anoscopy, or colonoscopy, to determine the underlying cause and develop an appropriate treatment plan, which may involve topical creams, stool softeners, or surgical interventions.

I've been dealing with hepatitis A since last month, and I've noticed my SGPT levels are all over the place, sticking around 60-90 for the past two weeks. It's like they go down a bit and then shoot back up again. I'm trying to be careful with a bland diet and haven't been physically active, just doing stuff on the computer. Any idea why this is happening? Is it normal for SGPT to take a while to stabilize?
SGPT fluctuating after Hepatitis A is fairly common as your liver heals. It can take a few weeks to a couple of months for the levels to normalize, depending on the severity of the infection and your overall health. Keep following your doctor's advice on diet, rest, and lifestyle, and avoid any additional strain on your liver. If you continue to see fluctuations or have concerns, your doctor may recommend further testing to ensure full recovery.

I'm dealing with IBS and it's been tough figuring out how to manage it. I'm really trying to avoid junk food and dairy, but does this mean I have to stick with that forever? Are there any other ways to relieve the bloating, like maybe some tablets or something? How long does it usually take for symptoms to start improving?
IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome) is a chronic condition and there is no definite cure for it. Treatment focuses on managing symptoms and improving quality of life. It varies from person to person, but it may take several weeks to months to see improvement with treatment. Having IBS mean that avoiding junk foods, milk items for the rest of the life? It is recommended to avoid trigger foods that worsen IBS symptoms, such as junk foods and dairy products. For bloating relief, you can try over-the-counter simethicone tablets
