I've been dealing with a fissure for 5 years now and the pain is unbearable I've tried multiple hospitals but I'm really scared of surgery. Is there any hope for relief without going under the knife? What other options might work for long-term healing?

View allI'm wondering how I can tell if I have worms in my stomach. Sometimes it really feels like something's moving in there. What could be causing this sensation?
Feeling something moving inside your stomach could be a sign of a parasitic infection such as intestinal worms. To treat this, you can take Albendazole 400mg as a single dose. It is important to consult a doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment plan.

My dad has been feeling nauseous and vomiting all day but his sonography and CT scan came back normal. His creatinine is 1.92 and endoscopy showed acid reflux. He has a pacemaker from 2014 and had bypass surgery in 2008. Right now his cardiologist has him on three meds for acid reflux Zofer, Rantac 300, and Pantocid. Is this the right treatment or should one of Rantac or Pantocid be stopped? Could there be a better option?
In this case, nausea and reflux may be related to kidney function or meds. Zofer (ondansetron) is okay short term. Only one PPI (Pantocid) is usually needed—consult for drug interaction review.

My brother has been dealing with chronic pancreatitis for the past 4-5 years. Every time he gets treated, doctors find his lipase and amylase levels are abnormally high. They manage it with drips and painkillers until he stabilizes, then slowly reintroduce his diet. This cycle keeps repeating. Is there any permanent solution whether it's medication, surgery, or even an organ transplant? He doesn't drink or use any drugs, and he's just a regular student. What options do we have to stop this from happening again?
Chronic pancreatitis has very limited Treatment options. What is the mri/ mrcp findings. If pancreatic duct is large then it can be diverted ( operated). Other wise there is no specific treatment except pain management. For pain management various options including nerve blocks can be tried.
