I'm really worried about my 16-year-old son. He's been having pain in his lower abdomen for the last couple of days, and it seems to stretch towards the left. This is the third time it's happened in the past two months. The last time, we got all the urine tests, CBC, and an ultrasound done, and they all came back normal. Our physician just gave him some regular medication, and the pain went away. I'm wondering if there's something else we should be doing or if there's a specific cause we might be missing?

I'm feeling really uncomfortable with some hot air and a bit of a burning sensation in my throat. I'm not sure why this is happening. Could you help me out?

The sensation of hot air and burning in your throat could be due to acid reflux, throat inflammation, or irritation; try gargling with warm salt water, drinking plenty of fluids, and avoiding spicy or acidic foods;

I'm experiencing some discomfort with itching and occasionally a burning sensation after I pass stool, which lasts for a few hours before it settles down. But the itching tends to come and go. I've been using Betadine cream on my anus, and it seems to provide some relief. Is it safe for me to keep doing this, or should I be considering something else? Could you provide some guidance on this?

yes but do stool culture examination
