I've been noticing fresh blood when I pass stool, and this happens for about four to five days every month. What could be causing this, and are there any effective treatments that don't involve surgery?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Fresh blood with stools for few days each month may indicate hemorrhoids or fissure—non-surgical options include fiber intake, sitz baths, and ointments like nifedipine.

Can hepatitis B be cured totally?
Most adults with hepatitis B recover fully, even if their signs and symptoms are severe. Infants and children are more likely to develop a chronic (long-lasting) hepatitis B infection. A vaccine can prevent hepatitis B, but there's no cure if you have the condition.

I've had Crohn's disease for two years and now I'm dealing with vomiting and frequent bowel movements. Doctors say there are obstructions and I might need surgery. Can this be treated with medication or is surgery really necessary?
In Crohn's disease, vomiting, and frequent bowel movements, along with obstructions, can indicate a need for surgery, especially if medical treatment doesn't provide relief. While medications like anti-inflammatories, immunosuppressants, and biologics can help manage inflammation and symptoms, they might not fully resolve severe obstructions or complications like strictures or fistulas. Surgery may be necessary to remove damaged tissue, relieve blockages, or address complications like abscesses or perforations.
