I've been dealing with piles for the past 3 months and it's been painful when I pass urine. I got a colonoscopy done and have the report do you think I need surgery for this?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
It's important to consult with a healthcare professional (like a gastroenterologist or surgeon) for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan for your piles. While they can be managed with lifestyle changes and non-surgical treatments, surgery might be necessary in some cases. Painful urination could be related to other issues, so a consultation is crucial to determine the underlying cause and appropriate course of action.

View allI thought I might have hemorrhoids because I've been taking phentermine for weight loss and heard that could be a side effect. It started with my anus being swollen and painful during bowel movements, and it's been like this for over a week now. But just now, I noticed a green, booger-like discharge from my anus. I took a picture to get a better idea of what's happening, and it looks like there's a blister down there. It's really painful around the blister and the surrounding area. I'm a bit freaked out because it shouldnt be an STDIm married and was just tested not too long ago. There's only this one blister. It's red around the edges and white on top. I really don't know what's going on. Any advice?

Is bright red blood in stool serious?
If bleeding is in small quantity and occurs rarely then it might not be serious but need evaluation to know the cause.

I've been told I have a couple of stones in my left kidney and gallbladder. The kidney stones have dissolved, but my latest ultrasound shows the gallstones are still forming. I'm really hoping to find a way to treat these gallstones without having to remove my gallbladder. I'm currently on UDILIV 300. Do you think there are other options?
While surgical removal of the gallbladder (cholecystectomy) is a common treatment for gallstones, there are alternative treatments for small, uncalcified gallstones in the early stages of formation; Udiliv 300, which you're currently taking, contains ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA), a bile acid that can help dissolve small, cholesterol-rich gallstones; other non-surgical options include watchful waiting, dietary changes
