I'm having some discomfort right at the opening of my anus, but there's no blood in my stools. I am also experiencing loose motions. Can you help me understand what's going on?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
I'm sorry to hear about your discomfort. Pain in the anal area without bleeding, especially with loose motions, could be due to irritation, an anal fissure, or infection. Keep the area clean, stay hydrated, and consider taking a mild stool binder like ORS with electrolytes. If the pain persists or worsens, please consult a doctor for a proper examination.

View allI'm thinking about joining the Reshape Nation program to help with my weight loss, but I've heard that it might not be suitable if you have a fatty liver issue. They've also suggested using some Amway products, like Nutrilite supplements. I'm a bit concerned and wonder if it's a safe choice for me to proceed. Could you provide some guidance on whether it's advisable for someone in my situation?

Is it normal to poop 5 times a day?
There is no normal bowel movement. It can range from three times a day to three times a week. However, your normal pattern may be different from these numbers. If you have always been having five bowel movements daily then it is normal pattern for you. But, if this is a new change along with change is stool consistency then you might be having any intestinal infection or disease for which you need to consult a doctor.

I'm dealing with a severe piles issue with bleeding, swelling, pain, and a burning sensation. Bowel movements are really difficult, and I have to strain a lot. I read that thuthi keerai might help treat piles, but I'm breastfeeding my 4-month-old baby is it safe to take right now? I don't want surgery, just some temporary relief since I can't pass stool normally. What can I do to manage this?
To manage severe piles while breastfeeding, prioritize gentle relief strategies. Focus on fiber-rich foods and stool softeners to ease bowel movements, and consider topical treatments like witch hazel or aloe vera for pain and swelling. Sitz baths and ice packs can also provide temporary relief. Avoid straining and long toilet sessions, and consult your doctor or a lactation consultant regarding the safety of any specific medications or herbal remedies while breastfeeding
