My dad is 77 and had bypass surgery 25 years ago he's now dealing with bleeding piles and really bad burning around his anus. What can we do to help ease his discomfort?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
For bleeding piles and discomfort, increasing fiber intake, using topical creams, and sitting in warm water baths may help. If symptoms persist, a doctor may recommend surgical procedures like hemorrhoidectomy.

View allI'm experiencing some discomfort and it's been quite concerning for me. I've had pain on the left side of my chest and abdomen, and sometimes the pain radiates from one side to the other, even to the back of my chest. This has been happening for about 15 days now, and the pain seems to come and go in both my chest and abdomen. Sometimes it feels like it's in different spots, maybe the left side, and then suddenly it's on the right. I haven't noticed any cold or fever, which makes me even more curious about what's really going on. I'm currently taking these medications: Normaxin RT, Tryptomer 10 mg, Abphyline, Netova 400, and Covifit. I just received test results back, and the sputum for AFB test is negative. Could you please help me understand what might be causing all this?
take one painkiller and one antacid . it will reduce your pain

I'm really worried about my mom's recent health checkup. The ultrasound showed that her gallbladder has quite a few polyps, with one measuring about 15mm. We took the reports to some gastroenterologists, and they think surgery to remove the gallbladder is the way to go. But I'm wondering if there are any alternative treatments or maybe something like homeopathy that might help instead of jumping straight to surgery?
Gall bladder polyp is incidental findings. Any polyp less than 1.5 cms should be observed and follow up to be done. Polyp more than 1.5 cms carries chances of malignancy and needs removal of gall bladder.

I've been having this weird issue for the past two months where my stomach feels like it's beating, kind of like a heartbeat. It's freaking me out a little, and I'm not sure what's causing it. Could you help me understand what's going on and what I should do about it?
That could be gastritis,take antacids and consume bland diet and more water to ease your stomach and take adequate rest
