I'm living in a hostel and I've been having trouble digesting the food from the canteen. It feels like my stomach just doesn't agree with it. Is there something specific I should look out for in the canteen food, or could it be something I need to change in my diet or habits? I'm a bit worried and could really use some advice on what might be causing this issue and how I might manage it.

I'm a bit concerned after my recent routine checkup. During the ultrasound, everything came back normal except for something called "Mild Fatty Infiltration of Liver." My blood and urine tests were all fine too. I don't have any symptoms like pain or digestive issues, and my appetite is good. Should I be worried about this liver thing? Are there precautions I need to take?

I had surgery for piles a while ago and have been using laxatives for about 9-10 months to help with recovery. Now I can't seem to pass stool without them. How do I know if I've become dependent on laxatives and what can I do to fix this?

Long-term laxative use may cause dependence; gradually taper under medical supervision and increase fiber and hydration.
