I'm wondering if it's okay to give ofloxacin oz for treating piles. The person I'm asking about is already on medication for hypertension. Can you advise me on this?

Using Ofloxacin OZ for Piles (Hemorrhoids)_
- Not the first line of treatment: Ofloxacin OZ is not typically used to treat piles. Hemorrhoids are usually managed with lifestyle changes, dietary modifications, and topical treatments.
- Potential risks: Using antibiotics like Ofloxacin OZ for piles may lead to unnecessary antibiotic exposure, increasing the risk of antibiotic resistance and side effects.
Interactions with Hypertension Medication
- Potential interactions: Ofloxacin OZ may interact with certain hypertension medications, such as beta-blockers, calcium channel blockers, or diuretics.
- Monitor blood pressure and adjust medication: If Ofloxacin OZ is prescribed, your doctor should monitor your blood pressure and adjust your hypertension medication as needed.

View allI'm a 40-year-old male and for the past week, I've been noticing mucus discharge from my anus without any stool, just liquid mucus. I do have some gastric and digestion issues but no other problems like fever, BP, diabetes, injuries, or surgeries. What could be causing this and what treatment would you suggest?
Rectal mucus discharge without stool, along with existing gastrointestinal issues, could be related to conditions like irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), hemorrhoids, or even certain infections. It's crucial to consult a doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment, as the underlying cause needs to be determined

I'm really worried about the multiple calculi in my gallbladder lumen and the largest one is 13mm. The c.b.d is 3.2mm and it's visualized up to its retro pancreatic portion. There's no obvious intraductal calculus seen. What does all this mean? Should I be concerned about the size of the calculi or its location? What are the chances these will cause complications, and what steps should I take next?
The presence of multiple gallstones is identified, but there is no blockage of the bile ducts. If you're not experiencing symptoms, your doctor might suggest a wait-and-see approach, but if you do have symptoms or complications, surgery to remove the gallbladder may be necessary.
