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've been dealing with nausea, stomach pressure, acidity, and weight loss even though I've been eating normally. Recently, after getting an upper endoscopy, they found I have antral gastritis and tested positive for H. pylori. So, I'm on Nexpro L, Gaviscon syrup, an H. pylori treatment kit, and a probiotic. It's been 8 days on these meds, with another week to go. While my symptoms have improved and I'm feeling better, I'm still dropping weight. I'm really confused and a bit worried why this is happening. Could it be because of the H. pylori infection? Once the treatment's over, will I be able to gain weight back? I used to weigh around 71 kg last year; now I'm down to 65.5 kg. I also have piles, and it's kind of freaking me out. How should I approach gaining weight again?

Kindly discuss for your concern.

I've been having this pain under my left rib that keeps coming and going, and it's been like this for a few days now. It actually just got worse today. Any idea what might be causing it? It's starting to worry me a bit.

Aching under the rib on the left side, with pain coming and going since the last few days could be due to various reasons such as muscle strain, gastritis, or even a possible issue with the spleen. However, since the pain has aggravated today, it is important to rule out any serious conditions such as pancreatitis or a kidney infection. I recommend taking a mild pain reliever like acetaminophen (Tylenol) for the pain, and also consider taking an antacid like omeprazole (Prilosec) if you suspect it could be related to gastritis. It is important to rest, avoid heavy meals, and stay hydrated. If the pain persists or worsens, please seek medical attention for further evaluation and management.

I'm really worried about my mom. She's dealing with both dengue and typhoid right now, and I'm not sure what kind of diet would be best for her. The big issue is that nothing seems to be digesting properly - even water passes through her really quickly, like within 15 minutes. Is there something specific I should be feeding her to help with this?
