I'm a couple of days post-operation for piles and now I'm dealing with a fever, along with some cold symptoms and body pain. Is this something that just happens sometimes, or should I be worried that it's more serious?

Bathing after eating fruits like mango and banana is generally safe.
No specific gap is required, but consider:
- Digestion time: Wait at least 30-60 minutes after eating to allow for digestion.
- Blood sugar levels: Fruits like mango and banana can cause a temporary spike in blood sugar. Bathing shortly after may lead to:
- Dizziness
- Lightheadedness
- Shivering
To be cautious:
- Wait 1-2 hours after eating fruits before bathing.
- Take a warm shower instead of a cold bath to avoid shocking your system.
No serious health issues will arise from bathing after eating fruits. However, being mindful of digestion time and blood sugar levels can ensure a comfortable bathing experience.

View allI've been dealing with a pilonidal sinus and my doctor recommended surgery but I'm worried it might come back. Is homeopathy a good option to treat this without recurrence
Pilonidal sinus is a chronic condition often caused by hair and infection under the skin, and surgery is the most definitive treatment to remove the tract completely and prevent recurrence. While homeopathy may help manage mild symptoms temporarily, it does not address the root cause and has a high chance of recurrence without surgical intervention. It's best to follow your surgeon’s advice for long-term resolution.

I've been dealing with this persistent issue on my left hip. There was a wound with pus, and the abscess drained by itself at first, but then it came back. It's been going on for about three months now. Initially, a general medicine doctor treated it by cutting it open and removing the pus. It healed over 30 days, but the pus has started to form again. I'm really worried and not sure what to do next. Could you help me understand why this keeps happening and what my next steps should be?
Consider consulting a specialist, such as general surgeon, for further evaluation and treatment, as the recurring abscess may indicate an underlying issue, such as a fistula, infected cyst, or underlying bone infection, which may require antibiotics, surgical drainage, or other interventions

I have an anal abscess and I'm wondering if surgery is the only way to treat it. How much would the surgery cost, how painful is the procedure, and how long does recovery usually take?
Anal abscess often requires drainage surgery; it’s typically done under local anesthesia and recovery may take 1–2 weeks with pain control.
