I've had a chronic fissure for the past 6 months and was on cefadroxil plus supportive treatment for 3 months prescribed by a surgeon, then switched to rifaximin 400mg with laxatives and local metrogy for another 3 months but I still have burning around the anal ring. The doctor says my anal canal isn't constricted and spasms have reduced so surgery isn't needed, but when I pass hard stools, my sentinel piles flare up and the burning lasts a long time. Why isn't this healing completely and what else can I try?

View allI recently found out that I have grade 2 fatty liver, and it's really worrying me. I'm someone who doesn't drink alcohol at all, so I'm confused about how this happened. Is there a way to reverse this condition, and what steps should I take to do so?
Grade 2 fatty liver can be reversible with lifestyle changes. You should focus on a healthy diet, regular exercise, and weight loss if needed. Avoiding alcohol is important. You can also consider medications like Ursodeoxycholic acid to help improve liver function. It is important to follow up with your doctor for monitoring and guidance.

I'm experiencing some burning sensations around my chest and it's been going on for about a year now. It comes and goes, but its mostly on my left side and sometimes it even extends to my left hand. I've had an endoscopy, echocardiogram, and X-ray, and everything showed up normal. My doctor mentioned it might just be in my head, but I still feel it almost every day. I'm really not sure what to do at this point. Any ideas or suggestions?
drink warm water , stop spicy , do regular exercises, timely foood
