I've been having this intense pricking sensation right at the opening of my anus whenever I pass stools. It's not exactly painful the rest of the time, and there's no bleeding involved. I'm kind of worried about what might be causing this. Could it be something that needs attention or do you have any advice on how to deal with it?

It could be due to various reasons which requires physical examination to evaluate, suggesting for surgical consultation.

I'm wondering if drinking lemon water in the morning can actually help with bloating or if it might cause any side effects. I've been trying it out, but I feel like I'm having more gas building up in my stomach since I started. Should I keep drinking it, or is this a sign I should stop?

My 65-year-old mom has multiple gallstones and severe sleep apnea. Doctors say meds won't help and surgery is too risky because it could be life-threatening. What options do we have left? She really wants to live is there any other solution we can try?
