I've been having some trouble whenever my stool comes out hard. It causes a lot of pain, and then it hurts the whole day when I'm sitting. But when my stool isn't hard, everything seems normal and there's no pain at all. Could you help me figure out what's going on?

The persistent fever despite various treatments and normal test results suggests an underlying infection or inflammatory condition. The elevated CRP (43mgL) and mildly abnormal LFTs indicate ongoing inflammation. Consider further testing, such as imaging studies (e.g., ultrasound, CT scan) or infectious disease panels, to identify the underlying cause. Consultation with an infectious disease specialist or a rheumatologist may be beneficial.

I've been having mucus in my stool every day for over a month now. I used to have IBS and was dealing with constipation, but I'm feeling better since I started using Patanjali's Divya Churna, and my stool is passing more easily. I'm really worried about the mucus, though. Also, I've been experiencing a lot of hair fall and have lost more than 60% of my hair. Can you please help me figure out how to get rid of the mucus in my stool and stop the hair fall?

I'm dealing with diabetes and have been experiencing some itching around my anus for about two weeks now. I took 400 mg of albendazole last night, suspecting it might be pinworms causing this. How long should I expect it to take for the symptoms to improve if pinworms are the issue?

I'm really worried because I've had a stomach ache and an upset stomach for the past two days. I feel nauseous all the time and can't seem to get any sleep. On top of that, I've got a bad cough and cold. Could you give me some advice on what might be going on and what I should do?

I'm sorry you're feeling this way. It sounds like you might be dealing with a stomach issue and a cold at the same time, which can make everything worse. If the symptoms persist, it might be a good idea to consult a doctor to get proper treatment and find some relief.
