I've been dealing with an anal fissure for three years now and have been taking Lacsyp and some other antibiotics, though I forgot the name. Sometimes it eases up, but now I'm dealing with hard bowels, pain, and discomfort again. Today, I noticed some pus-like material on my rectum while bathing. Plus, I'm also having trouble with gas. What do you think might be going on, and is there something more I should be doing to get relief or prevent this from getting worse?

I had an episode of vomiting with blood yesterday, and I'm a regular smoker and drinker. Could you help me understand why that might have happened and what kind of doctor I should reach out to?

Back pain from prolonged sitting is common. Shelcal 500 mg (Calcium and Vitamin D3) may help alleviate back pain by: 1. Supporting bone health 2. Relaxing muscles 3. Reducing muscle spasms However, consider the following: 1. Consult your doctor before starting any new supplements. 2. Shelcal 500 mg is primarily for calcium and vitamin D supplementation, not specifically for back pain relief. 3. Everyday intake may lead to excessive calcium consumption. Recommendation: 1. Consult an orthopedic specialist or physical therapist to address underlying causes of back pain. 2. Maintain good posture, take regular breaks, and stretch while sitting. 3. Consider exercises strengthening your core and back muscles. Discuss Shelcal 500 mg with your doctor, and follow their guidance.
