I'm trying to figure out what's better for my abdominal cramps. My uncle told me about Normaxin, but I've been taking Buscopan for a while now. I'm a 40-year-old guy and I'm confused about which one would be more effective for me. Could you help me decide which is the better option?

Both Normaxin (Dicyclomine + Simethicone) and Buscopan (Hyoscine Butylbromide) are antispasmodics used to relieve abdominal cramps; however, Buscopan is generally considered a better choice for abdominal cramps due to its targeted action on smooth muscle relaxation, whereas Normaxin also contains Simethicone, which is primarily used for gas and bloating relief;

I'm really concerned because I have to pass stool at least 6 times a day. It's not like I'm having loose motions or anything, but every time I feel stuffed, I get this intense urge to go. It's getting really frustrating and I just want it to stop. Ideally, going twice a day would feel a lot more normal. Can you offer any advice on what might be going on or how I could address it?

I'm a bit worried because after I masturbate, I can't seem to poop, and there was blood at the end when I finished. What could be going on here, and should I be concerned about this?

I'm really sorry you're feeling this way. It could be due to pressure or irritation, but seeing blood is a concern. If it's just a small amount and resolves quickly, it might not be serious, but I strongly recommend seeing a doctor to rule out any underlying issues.

I'm dealing with this phlegm in my chest for quite a while now, even though I don't have a cough. It's super annoying, especially when I'm eating, and it's making me feel like I'm going to vomit, sometimes to the point where I end up losing all the food I just ate. What could be causing this? Should I be worried, and what can I do to get rid of it?

take tablet mucinac for twice a day for 5 days
