I've been experiencing this sharp, persistent pain on the right side of my rib cage for about a year now. I've seen a few doctors and they keep prescribing anti-inflammatory meds, but they just aren't doing the trick. Could you provide some guidance on what might be causing this or suggest any other treatment options?

I've been dealing with constipation for about a year now, and it's been really tough. I end up straining a lot, and sometimes a small part of my rectum sticks out after I use the bathroom. It's kind of worrying because I can push it back in, but it still causes some pain, especially when I'm sitting. I also feel like I need to go to the bathroom around six times a day, which is pretty embarrassing and scary. I'm wondering if there's anything I can do to fix this without having to go through surgery. Any advice would be super helpful.

That could be hemarrhoids,Consume plenty of water and fibre rich food to avoid constipation and plan for surgery as that is the treatment of choice

I just realized I ate some ber fruit that had maggots inside. I'm feeling pretty worried. Can you tell me what I should do about this?

When it comes to treating throat infections like Dry Cough, both Clavem 625 mg and Gudcef 200 are effective antibiotics. However, they have some differences. *Clavem 625 mg* contains Amoxicillin and Clavulanic acid, which work together to combat bacterial infections . It's often prescribed for respiratory tract infections, including throat infections. *Gudcef 200*, on the other hand, contains Cefpodoxime and Clavulanic acid. This combination is also effective against bacterial infections, including those that cause throat infections . In terms of effectiveness, both medications have similar action mechanisms and are used to treat similar infections. However, your doctor will decide which one to prescribe based on the underlying disease and other parameters . So, it's not necessarily about which one is more effective, but rather which one your doctor thinks is best suited for your specific condition. Always consult your doctor for personalized advice!

I'm really concerned because my SGPT level is at 370. Is this something that can be treated? Could you let me know what kind of medicine I should be taking and how often, to bring it back to the normal range?

To reduce it to normal range, you can take medications like Ursocol, Liv 52, and HepaMerz. These medications can help in improving liver function. It is important to consult a doctor for proper dosage and duration of treatment.
