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:

  1. Digestion time: Wait at least 30-60 minutes after eating to allow for digestion.
  2. 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:

  1. Wait 1-2 hours after eating fruits before bathing.
  2. 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.

Antibiotic use should be guided by your healthcare provider based on their assessment of your individual situation. If you have any concerns about your wound or recovery, it's always best to contact your doctor or other healthcare provider for personalized advice

I'm noticing some blood coming from a spot just above my butt crack, right by the end of my tailbone. I think there's a small hole there. What could be causing this, and what should I do about it? I'm feeling a bit worried.

A small hole or opening above the butt crack, near the tailbone, with bleeding, may indicate a pilonidal sinus, anal fissure, or a perianal abscess; apply gentle pressure with a clean cloth to stop the bleeding, maintain good hygiene, and seek immediate medical attention
