View allMy mom's been having some pain in her upper abdomen for the past few days. It only seems to happen when we press around that area or if she does some unusual movements. I'm really worried about what's going on there. Could it be something serious or should we just wait it out?
Your mother may be experiencing some musculoskeletal pain in her upper abdomen. This type of pain can be due to muscle strain or inflammation. I recommend she take a pain reliever like acetaminophen (Tylenol) at a dose of 500mg every 6 hours as needed for pain. Additionally, applying a warm compress to the area and gentle stretching exercises may help alleviate the discomfort. If the pain persists or worsens, she should consult with a healthcare provider for further evaluation.

I'm dealing with this stomach pain that's been going on for about 3 months now. It's on the left side of my tummy, near my hip. The worst part is, my tummy starts rumbling at night, keeping me awake. What could be causing this, and do you have any advice on what I should do?
It sounds like you're experiencing discomfort in your left lower abdomen, which could be due to various causes such as digestive issues, gas, or even something like an ovarian cyst. It's important to get it checked by a doctor to pinpoint the exact cause and receive the right treatment, especially since it's been ongoing for a few months.

I've been dealing with hemorrhoids for months now and none of the over-the-counter treatments seem to help. Should I consider surgery at this point or are there other options I haven't tried yet?
Piles unresponsive to OTC medication may benefit from prescription creams, dietary fiber,or office procedures (rubber band ligation) before surgery.
