I'm having a problem where I need to go to the bathroom 2 to 3 times every morning, and it's not a complete bowel movement. This has been happening since I was born. Whenever I have to leave the house early, I take an Eldoper tablet to prevent more bathroom trips. I'm worried if taking Eldoper could seriously affect my liver. How should I handle this situation?

View allWhy do I keep getting anal fissures even after LIS surgery? I'm vegetarian and careful with my diet but still get fissures from just one episode of hard stool caused by antibiotics. Others pass hard stool without issues, but my small anus seems prone to tearing - is that the real cause?
It's understandable why you're concerned about recurring anal fissures despite LIS surgery, even with a seemingly healthy diet. While your small anus might be a contributing factor, it's important to consider other potential reasons for continued fissures, like the specific trauma caused by hard stools, even in a vegetarian, and underlying sphincter issues

I've been told I have diverticulitis, and I've noticed it hurts more when I'm sitting compared to lying down. Is there something about sitting that puts extra pressure on my colon?
It is most likely that when you sit the position causes a touch or increased pressure over the diverticulitis which may cause the pain. These steps may help in the ailment: - Rest well - A liquid diet may be of help during this time period as it may be easier to digest a liquid diet, you can slowly increase to solid food depending on how you tolerate it. - Drink adequate amount of water, aim to rink 2.5 - 3 lietrs of water per day - Prunes or prune juice may serve as natural laxatives, which would help in easier bowel movements - Have a low-fat diet since fat slows down the passage of food through the intestine. - Eat low-bulk foods such as broths and low-fiber breads - Cooked vegetables, cooked fruits, and apples would help with an inflamed intestine - Avoid milk and milk products (yogurts and cheeses),nuts, corn, popcorn, and seeds which could worsen your illness

I've been recovering from COVID, and it's been over 35 days since I got my first positive test. Lately, I've been experiencing this dull chest pain that comes and goes on its own. There's also this burning pain mostly on the left side of my chest. I've been taking treatment for GERD for the last 10 days with pantop d 40mg once a day, but it doesn't seem to be helping. Could you offer some guidance on what might be going on or suggest what I should do next?
It sounds like you may be experiencing persistent chest pain and symptoms of GERD despite taking Pantop D 40mg once a day. In this case, you can try adding an antacid like **Ranitidine 150mg** twice a day before meals to help with the burning chest pain. Additionally, you can try **Sucralfate** suspension 1-2 teaspoons four times a day to help coat and protect the lining of your stomach. Make sure to continue following up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management of your symptoms.
