I've had frequent urination for years and now my doctor says I also have a fissure. Are there any non-surgical treatments or medications that could help with this? Really worried about needing surgery and want to explore other options first.

View allI've been having this abdominal pain in my lower groin area, and it seems to get worse when I feel like I need to pass stool, which has been coming out black. There's also a lot of gas and I feel hungry, but every time I eat, I feel an immediate urge to use the bathroom again. It's been a bit worrying, and Im wondering what could be causing it?
Try to identify and avoid the foods that affect you the most. Foods that cause gas problems . Try cutting back on fried and fatty foods.Often, bloating results from eating fatty foods. Fat delays stomach emptying and can increase the sensation of fullness. Reduce your use of dairy products. Try using low-lactose dairy foods, such as yogurt, instead of milk. Try smaller portions-Many of the foods that can cause gas are part of a healthy diet. So, try eating smaller portions of problem foods to see if your body can handle a smaller portion without creating excess gas. Eat slowly, chew your food thoroughly and don't gulp.

I'm experiencing chest pain off and on throughout the day, and it often spreads to my shoulder and left hand. I've been to a cardiologist, and she mentioned it's not a heart issue. All my tests have come back normal, but I'm still concerned about the pain. Which kind of doctor should I see next to figure out what's going on? I'm really confused about the next step.
Since your cardiologist has ruled out heart-related issues and your reports are normal, your chest pain radiating to your shoulder and left hand might be due to musculoskeletal problems, such as costochondritis or muscle strain, or even nerve-related issues. A consultation with an orthopedic specialist or a pain management specialist might be beneficial to evaluate these possibilities. Additionally, if stress or anxiety is contributing to your symptoms, seeking advice from a mental health professional could also be helpful. They can provide strategies to manage anxiety which might help alleviate your pain.

Doctor, my SGOT is 53 and SGPT is 75, plus I have Gilbert syndrome and multiple gallstones with the largest being 7.2mm. I'm considering surgery but I'm a bit worried is it safe to go ahead with it given my condition?
Gilbert syndrome and mildly raised LFTs usually don’t cause surgical risk—discuss anesthesia clearance and hydration protocol with surgeon.
