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 noticed blood in my vomit again yesterday, and it's really got me worried. I work night shifts and tend to smoke cigarettes and drink alcohol almost every day. This last time it happened early in the morning after a night shift party. Could my lifestyle be the reason behind this? What should I do about it?

My doctor switched me from lactifiber to lactihep plus for my hard stools. I'm supposed to take 10ml, but I'm not sure how much water I should mix it with. Could you guide me on this?

You can mix 10 ml of Lactihep Plus in about half a glass of water (around 100-150 ml) and drink it. Follow it up with plenty of water throughout the day to stay hydrated and help with stool softening.

I've been having some trouble with my breathing lately and went for a lung X-ray, which came back normal. I also had an endoscopy, and the report mentioned issues like 13rd lower oesophagitis, lax cardia, and pangastritis. It also noted mild erythema in the stomach's fundus, body, and antrum. I'm trying to understand what all this means. Is this something that might lead to cancer? And how could something going on with my stomach be causing me shortness of breath? I'd really appreciate any insight or advice you might have.

If your symptoms of shortness of breath, difficulty swallowing, or chest discomfort persist or worsen, its important to seek medical attention. A gastroenterologist may need to monitor your condition, and if necessary, perform further investigations such as a 24-hour pH study to assess acid reflux or endoscopic ultrasound to evaluate stomach issues more thoroughly. gastritis and acid reflux can contribute to your symptoms of shortness of breath, these conditions are manageable with the right medications and lifestyle changes. Addressing your stomach issues through medication and lifestyle modifications should help alleviate your symptoms over time.
