My wife has an 8mm stone in her pancreatic duct. I'm really concerned and not sure what to do next. Are there any medications or maybe even Ayurvedic treatments that could help remove or dissolve these calcium deposits?

View allI've been struggling with this issue for months. Whenever I stand for a long time or walk a bit, I get this weird sweaty feeling around my anus, and I notice stains on my underwear that match that pattern. Also, when I poop, there's this white foam in it, and it just won't go away. The doctor had me get a perianal ultrasound, and everything looked fine, probably because they only checked the outside. They also mentioned it wasn't a fistula. I'm at a loss about what to do next. Can you help me figure this out?
Your symptoms, including the sweat-like sensation, anal staining, and white foam in stool, suggest a possible anal gland or fistula issue, despite the external perianal ultrasound being normal; consider seeking a second opinion from a colorectal surgeon or gastroenterologist for a more thorough evaluation, including a digital rectal exam, anoscopy, or MRI, to rule out conditions like anal fistula, abscess, or proctitis, and to develop an effective treatment plan.

I'm having some issues with my stool recently. It's been a bit sticky and somewhat loose, and I've also noticed a burning sensation when I go. I'm having to go to the bathroom 3 to 4 times a day, and this is happening even though I've cut down on spicy foods. I'm wondering if this could be related to an amoebic infection since I've been experiencing some sensation in my urine for which I'm getting treatment. Do you have any advice or thoughts on what might be going on?

I've recently found out that my SGPT level is 79.8 and my total cholesterol is 174.5. I'm a bit worried and would really like to bring the SGPT down. Do you have any recommendations on how I can manage these levels, particularly the SGPT? I've been reading up a bit and it's all a tad confusing, so some clear advice would be super helpful!
To lower your SGPT level, also known as ALT (alanine aminotransferase), you can take the following steps: - Avoid alcohol consumption. Maintain a healthy weight through diet and exercise. Avoid fatty, fried, and processed foods. Consider taking medications like Ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA). To lower your total cholesterol level, you can follow a low-fat, low-cholesterol diet and increase your intake of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains
