I've been dealing with internal hemorrhoids for about 3 years now, but over the last 6 months it's gotten worse with frequent bleeding. I'm really worried and don't know much about this condition. Surgery isn't an option for me are there natural ways to treat this? What would you suggest for relief and healing?

Internal hemorrhoids can be managed naturally, especially with lifestyle changes and over-the-counter treatments. Increasing fiber in your diet, staying hydrated, and avoiding straining during bowel movements can significantly reduce symptoms and promote healing. Over-the-counter creams and suppositories containing hydrocortisone, lidocaine, or witch hazel can also provide relief from pain, swelling, and itching.

My mom accidentally swallowed a small plastic stick that was on a cake. She drank some water, and it seems to have gone down her throat just fine. She's acting normal now, but I'm still a bit worried. What should we do next? Should we just wait and see, or is it better to get it checked out?

I'm having trouble with my bowel movements for the past two years. I've tried taking 12 full tablets of CremaLax to control it, but I'm worried about getting too used to it. I've also been eating a lot of fibrous vegetables, but they haven't really helped. Can you give me some advice on what else I could try?

Take 2 glasses of water in the morning. You can take isabgol husk for few days. Increase fruits, vegetables in your diet & drink 10-12 glasses of water.

I've been told I have Marginal Hepatomegaly with diffuse fatty changes, but my liver function test is normal. My liver is 14.8 cm, I'm 30, Indian male, 5.6 feet tall, and I weigh 86 kg. I don't drink alcohol, soft drinks, or tea, and I walk for 30 minutes every day. I do take allergy meds. What should I do to get my liver back to normal?

Focus on weight loss through healthy eating and regular exercise. Eat a balanced, nutrient-rich diet high in fiber and antioxidants. Continue walking daily, and aim to increase physical activity gradually. Keep a healthy lifestyle with no alcohol and limiting processed sugars. Regularly follow up with your doctor for liver health monitoring and tests.
