I've been dealing with a fissure issue and my homeopathy doctor prescribed oral meds along with liquid drops for sitz baths. Just wanted to check if this treatment approach sounds right or if surgery might be needed down the line. The discomfort's been bothering me and I'm not sure how effective these remedies are long-term

Homeopathy and sitz baths may help mild cases, but chronic fissures usually need surgery like LIS or laser. Track symptoms and pain.

I'm Rajesh and I've been having this abdominal pain on the left side of my belly button for about 4 years now. I did a colonoscopy and endoscopy and they told me it's IBS. But just last week, I had an ultrasound and they found a 3mm gallbladder polyp. I'm really worried about it and it's making it hard for me to focus on work. Is this something dangerous? What should I do?

A 3mm gallbladder polyp is generally not dangerous, but regular monitoring is important. No immediate treatment is typically required, but keep an eye on any changes in symptoms. Managing IBS and discussing your stress with your doctor can help improve your overall well-being.

I've been feeling really uncomfortable lately with some persistent constipation, and now I've even started running a fever. I'm worried these two might be connected. Could constipation actually be the reason for my fever? Would love some insight on this.

Constipation itself does not typically cause fever. However, if constipation is severe and leads to complications such as a bowel obstruction or infection, then fever may occur as a result. It is important to address the underlying cause of constipation to prevent any potential complications.
