I'm really worried because for the past 23 days I've been having severe problems. I'm experiencing a lot of pain in my anus whenever I'm having a bowel movement, and it feels like I constantly have to go to the bathroom. It's painful all the time and I don't know what to do or which doctor I should see about this. Could you please help me figure this out?

View allI've been dealing with acid reflux for the past three months, which seemed to come on out of nowhere. It's still not going away, and I'm taking omeprazole 10mg once or twice daily. I don't drink, I'm not overweight, and I don't smoke or anything like that. Lately, I've also been oversleeping, needing naps, getting some headaches, and feeling low. After some blood tests, my doctor gave me 1000mg of vitamin D and calcium. Could there be a common cause linking all these symptoms together?

I'm struggling with high triglycerides and my doctor suggested taking TriCor 48mg, but I can't find it in the market. Can I use Fenocor 35mg instead? Will it be effective for me? I've also got a fatty liver, grade 2, and I've been dealing with triglycerides since 2016. I tried managing it with diet but didn't succeed and only now am I starting medication. Plus, I've had Gilbert Syndrome since 2001. My triglyceride level is at 442. Could you please advise on what I should do?
Since Tri Cor 48mg is not available in the market, you can consider taking Fenocor 35mg as an alternative. Fenocor contains the active ingredient Fenofibrate, which is commonly used to lower high triglyceride levels. It can also be beneficial for patients with fatty liver disease. Given your current Triglyceride level of 442, Fenocor 35mg can help in reducing your triglyceride levels and managing your condition. However, it is important to follow your doctor's advice regarding the dosage and duration of treatment.

The recommended dosage of Himalaya Liv.52 is 2-3 tablets, 2-3 times a day, and it's best taken after food to minimize potential stomach upset, as Liv.52 is an ayurvedic herbal supplement designed to support liver health and detoxification.
