I'm experiencing some kind of white fluid coming out of my anus, and it's causing me really bad itching. It's not related to my bowel movements. What kind of doctor should I see about this?

It sounds like you might have an anal infection or a condition like a fistula. Please consult a proctologist or a general surgeon as soon as possible for proper diagnosis and treatment. Early care can relieve your symptoms and prevent complications.

I'm really worried about my dad because he's been having regular gastric issues and body pains. I've noticed he usually takes Raja khaini tobacco right after meals, especially since he has breakfast around 10:30 a.m. We've consulted several doctors but haven't found a solution yet. What should we do next?

I had a lap appendectomy a while back in June 2021, and recently I've been getting this pain on the right side of my abdomen, back, and even my groin area. I had a CT scan done, and it showed something called non-specific lymphadenopathy. I'm pretty worried about what this could mean. Could you give me some advice on what steps I should take next?
