I'm really concerned about my 80-year-old mom who has gall bladder stones. She's been taking homeopathy medicines because she's not keen on getting surgery. We're planning to travel with her soon, and I'm worried about her having a sudden pain attack during the trip. Could you suggest any medicine that might help ease her pain while we're traveling?

I'm really struggling with some left side chest tightness I've been having for the past couple of months. Sometimes it spreads to my shoulder and neck, and it even feels like something is stuck in my throat. I've gone through a bunch of cardiac tests like an ECG, Echo, treadmill test, and blood work, and they've all come back normal. I've also seen an ENT, an internist, and a neurologist. They all say everything looks fine. I'm on meds for my blood pressure (Amlopine 5mg) and cholesterol (Atorvastatin 20mg), and both are normal according to my recent check-up. But I'm still not feeling any better. Any idea what's going on or what I should do next?

I've been having black stool before and during my periods for about the last five months. Is this normal, or could it be a sign of some internal issues? I'm a bit worried and would love some guidance.

Black stool before and during periods is not typical and may indicate gastrointestinal bleeding or issues like endometriosis affecting the bowel. I recommend consulting a doctor for evaluation, including stool tests or a scan, to rule out any underlying concerns.

Had anal fissure surgery 3 months ago but noticed some bleeding during bowel movements today. Could going to the gym be causing this or is it something else I should worry about
