I've been dealing with anal fissures for about 8 months now and I'm really nervous about surgery. Can you suggest some food habits or lifestyle changes that might help? Also, what are my other options if I want to avoid surgery?

I'm really worried because I had this sharp, stabbing pain on the left side of my chest yesterday. My family doctor prescribed me some gastric tablets like Ocid and Topnac P. But now, whenever I burp, it feels like something is poking or pricking me on the left side of my chest. I'm wondering if this is just muscle tightness or if it could be something more serious like a heart issue or just gastric problems. Can you help me figure out what's going on?

It sounds like you may be experiencing gastric issues rather than heart-related problems or muscle tightness. The medications you have been prescribed are Ocid for gastric issues and Topnac P for pain relief. Ocid helps reduce stomach acid production and Topnac P is a pain reliever. The symptoms you are describing, such as sharp pinning pain in the left side of your chest and a pricking feeling when burping, are common symptoms of gastric problems. It is important to take the medications as prescribed by your doctor and follow up with them if the symptoms persist or worsen.

I recently found out that I have grade 2 fatty liver, and it's really worrying me. I'm someone who doesn't drink alcohol at all, so I'm confused about how this happened. Is there a way to reverse this condition, and what steps should I take to do so?

Grade 2 fatty liver can be reversible with lifestyle changes. You should focus on a healthy diet, regular exercise, and weight loss if needed. Avoiding alcohol is important. You can also consider medications like Ursodeoxycholic acid to help improve liver function. It is important to follow up with your doctor for monitoring and guidance.

I'm experiencing this mild pain around my ribs on both sides, and it's been bothering me whenever I move. I got a chest X-ray, but the results seemed unclear since it was just black and white. I also struggle a lot with acidity and gastric issues, and there's this burning sensation in the middle of my chest. Plus, the pain seems to extend to my right shoulder, coming from the chest area. I'm a bit worried and not sure what's going on. Could you advise on what might be causing these symptoms and which type of doctor I should see to get this figured out?

X-Rays radiographs are black and white itself. Do not expect colors in that. As of now, take a tab. Rantac 150mg twice a day half an hour before food for 10 days. If it still persists, consult a MD consultant physician in person for further evaluation and management.
