I'm really worried about my dad. He's dealing with an anal fissure and he's been feeling extremely fatigued lately. It's so bad that he can't even walk on his own. Plus, he's running a fever, which just adds to his discomfort. What should we do to help him manage all these issues, especially the fatigue? Any advice would be really appreciated.

View allI've been having this really sharp pain on the left side of my abdomen since yesterday, and its honestly freaking me out a bit. My CT scan today showed something about bowel thickening and pericolic fat stranding in the descending colon on the left iliac fossa. I'm really curious and a bit worried about what might cause this kind of issue usually and what the general treatment might be. Can anyone shed some light on this?

I'm feeling this pain just under my left ribs that kind of feels like a cramp and it extends to my back. It's been like this for two days and hasn't gotten any better. Now there's also a tingling sensation along the base of my ribs and on the right side above my waist. What could this be?
Ecg and x-ray pa view is advised to the patient.

I've been dealing with gallstones and came across a couple of alternative treatments extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy ESWL and methyl tertiary butyl ether MTBE. Are these actually effective compared to gallbladder surgery? I'm a bit worried about going under the knife and wanted to know if these options are safe or worth considering.
While extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) and methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) are sometimes considered for gallstones, gallbladder surgery (cholecystectomy) is generally the preferred and most effective treatment for symptomatic gallstones. ESWL and MTBE have limited use and are often not recommended for long-term management due to the high likelihood of stone recurrence.
