I've been dealing with a chronic fissure for the past 3 months and my doctor recommended surgery but I'm really hesitant about going under the knife is there any other treatment option that could help me avoid surgery and still get relief from the pain and discomfort

I'm having some gas issues lately and after I work out, I've been getting this pinpoint pain on the left side of my chest. It first happened a couple of weeks ago and again yesterday. The pain wasn't super strong, but it was there, and I also had some trouble breathing and felt a bit nauseous. What could be going on?

it might be gastritis, take tablet pantoprazole once daily for 5 days

I've had piles since childhood and now at 22 I still get pain during bowel movements. Is this something that can be treated with medication or would I eventually need surgery?

For piles, medications like fiber supplements, stool softeners, or anti-inflammatory ointments can offer relief. However, if pain persists, surgery may be needed. Consult a colorectal surgeon for options.
