My wife has external hemorrhoids and wants to manage them through diet to avoid surgery for now. Can you suggest foods that help control and reduce the problem? Also, what foods should she avoid?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Your doctor may recommend that you eat more foods that are high in fiber. Eating foods that are high in fiber can make stools softer and easier to pass and can help treat and prevent hemorrhoids. Drinking water and other liquids, such as fruit juices and clear soups, can help the fiber in your diet work better.

View allI'm really worried about my dad who's been dealing with acidity issues for the past 10 years. He's been taking Aciloc for a while now, and I can't help but wonder if there are any natural remedies or home cures that might help instead of relying on medicine. Also, are there any side effects from taking Aciloc for so long?
While Aciloc is effective in managing acidity, there are also some home remedies that can help alleviate symptoms. For example, he can try consuming smaller and more frequent meals, avoiding trigger foods like spicy or fatty foods, and maintaining a healthy weight. Additionally, drinking a glass of cold milk or eating a banana can also provide relief from acidity. As for the side effects of Aciloc, common ones may include headache, dizziness, diarrhea, and stomach pain. It is important to consult with a healthcare professional if any side effects persist or worsen.

I'm dealing with a chronic constipation issue that's been ongoing for about a year now. I've been taking Lectihep syrup and Pegmove to try and fix it, but neither seems to be doing the trick. I'm only able to have a bowel movement every five days. Can you give me some advice on how I can find some relief or suggest any home treatments that might help?
Consider combining dietary changes, lifestyle modifications, and supplements to manage chronic constipation; increase fiber intake through foods like whole grains, fruits, and vegetables, and consider adding psyllium husk or methylcellulose fiber supplements; also, try drinking warm water, exercising regularly, and establishing a consistent bowel routine;
