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?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
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.

View allI had surgery for a hiatus hernia two years ago but for the past three months I've been dealing with heartburn and esophagus pain. Is this normal after surgery? I took pantoprazole for a month but I'm not sure if it's the best option for GERD. Can you suggest other medications that might work better? I can't get an endoscopy where I live because the doctors and equipment aren't reliable so I need advice on managing this without that option
Yes, symptoms can recur post-surgery. Try other PPIs like esomeprazole or rabeprazole, or add alginate-based antacids. Avoid large meals, alcohol, and late-night eating. Elevate head while sleeping.

I'm really concerned about my husband's health. He has gallstones, and theyre about 6.5mm in size according to his recent reports. I'm just wondering if they really have to be operated on. If surgery is necessary, could you recommend a good doctor in Hyderabad? If its not urgent, what can he do to manage or prevent any complications?
Your husband's gallstone size of 6.5mm is considered relatively small, and surgery might not be immediately necessary. However, it's essential to consult a gastroenterologist or a general surgeon for a thorough evaluation and personalized advice.

I've been dealing with some tough acidity and gas issues lately. I usually take a Topcid 40 tablet when this flares up, but I'm not sure if it's the right move. Is it safe and effective for what I'm experiencing? Also, are there any tips you could give me to help avoid these problems in the future? And one more thing - between Topcid and Digene, which one is actually better for stuff like acidity or gas?
