View allBeen noticing that my stool has whole chunks of watermelon, tomatoes, and carrots in it for the past couple of days. Just got over a cold and was taking Cefixine as prescribed by my doctor. This all started happening after that. It's not like they're partially digested; they're whole pieces. Should I be worried about this? Never had anything like this before. What do you think could be going on?

I'm a bit worried about my liver health because my recent blood tests showed SGPT (ALT) levels at 70.2 UL and SGOT (AST) at 58.3 UL. Could this mean I have a fatty liver? If it is, should I be starting any medication for it? Also, are there natural remedies I can try to help with this?
Nightfall (nocturnal emission) is a normal phenomenon, especially during adolescence and early adulthood. The frequency you've described (5-7 times a month) is within the normal range. Regarding your concerns: _The white sticky liquid_ is likely semen, which contains sperm. _Masturbation_: It's normal if nothing comes out except urine, as the body may not always produce semen during masturbation. _Sex with condom_: Using a condom prevents sperm from entering the partner's body, so it's expected that you wouldn't feel sperm coming out. _Fertility_: Nightfall and masturbation don't affect fertility. As long as you have normal semen production and sperm count, you can father a child. If you're concerned about your fertility or have questions, consider consulting: 1. A urologist or andrologist (specialists in male reproductive health) 2. A sexologist or a counselor (for guidance on sexual health and relationships) Remember, it's essential to practice safe sex and use protection to prevent sexually transmitted infections (STIs) and unintended pregnancy.

I've been dealing with this pressure in my head for quite a while now, and it usually flares up a couple of hours after I eat, especially in the afternoon. I notice my stomach bloats during these times, and it feels somewhat better once I pass gas or have a bowel movement, but that head pressure is really what's bothering me. It's mostly on the right side of my head, although sometimes I feel it on the left too. Ive seen a bunch of doctors, like psychiatry and Gastro Endocrinologist specialists, but I dont have any issues with my stomach or stools. I just can't figure out what's causing this, and it's really stressing me out. Do you have any thoughts on what it could be or what I should do next?
Based on your symptoms, it sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of migraine headaches triggered by food intake and associated with gastrointestinal symptoms. I recommend trying a combination medication like Sumatriptan and Naproxen (brand name Suminat-NT) for relief of your migraine symptoms. The usual dosage is one tablet at the onset of symptoms, followed by another tablet if needed after 2 hours, not exceeding two tablets in 24 hours. Additionally, you may benefit from taking Simethicone (brand name Colicaid) to help with the bloating and gas symptoms. The usual dosage is 40mg to 180mg taken orally after meals and at bedtime as needed. It is important to consult with a healthcare professional before starting any new medication regimen.
