I'm really struggling with anal fissures because of constipation for over a year now, and I've been in a lot of pain. I tried seeing a gynecologist, and they gave me some meds for five days, but nothing's changed. I'm usually on a routine in the morning with bowel movements, but it's been painful for so long. I've switched up my diet to include more fiber and fluids, but I still feel the pain. The only relief I get is from using Cremaffin Plus syrup at night and nifecaine cream around bowel movements, but if I miss the syrup even for a night, the pain is unbearable the next day. We're thinking about having kids, but I'm concerned if these medications might affect conception. How long can I keep using the syrup without any long-term effects? Is there a solid solution for my situation, and what can I expect if there's a treatment?
It sounds like you're experiencing chronic pain due to an anal fissure, which can be aggravated by constipation. Despite your efforts with diet and medications, if the pain persists, it might be worth seeking a second opinion, as other treatments like topical nitrates or botox injections could help. Regarding conception, Cremaffin Plus and nifecaine cream are generally safe for short-term use, but it's advisable to discuss them with your doctor during the planning phase. Treatment duration and improvement vary, but typically, with proper management, healing can occur in a few weeks to months.

I'm dealing with a really heavy feeling in my chest because of excess gas. It's happening every day no matter what I do, and whatever I eat seems to only make it worse. Most of the time, I feel like there's a lot of gas trapped near my chest area, and it's super uncomfortable. What can I do about this?
You may be experiencing symptoms of excessive gas and bloating. To help relieve these symptoms, you can try taking Simethicone (Gas-X) 125mg tablets. You can take 1-2 tablets after meals and at bedtime as needed to help break up the gas bubbles in your digestive tract. Additionally, you can try avoiding foods that commonly cause gas such as beans, broccoli, cabbage, and carbonated drinks. Drinking peppermint tea or taking a probiotic supplement like Align can also help improve digestion and reduce gas. If your symptoms persist, it's best to consult with a gastroenterologist for further evaluation and management.
