Question 1

I've been dealing with these analrectal cuts and itching for almost a week now, and I think it's anal fissures. I'm using T Bact and Fucidin H cream, which seems to help, but the cuts keep spreading. Even after they heal, my skin still feels itchy and irritated. I'm trying to figure out why I'm getting these anal cuts so often, especially since there hasn't been any anal intercourse to stress the area. What should I do?

Accepted Answer

You may be experiencing recurrent anal fissures, which can be quite uncomfortable. The use of topical ointments like T Bact and Fucidin H cream can help with healing, but it's important to address the underlying cause to prevent recurrence. To help prevent anal fissures and promote healing, I recommend the following: - Keep the anal area clean and dry - Increase your fiber intake to soften stools and make bowel movements easier - Stay well-hydrated - Avoid straining during bowel movements - Consider using a stool softener if needed - Sitz baths can help soothe the area and promote healing In addition, you may benefit from using a topical ointment like Rectogesic (glyceryl trinitrate) to help relax the anal sphincter and promote healing of the fissures. If these measures do not provide relief or if the fissures continue to recur, I recommend consulting with a gastroenterologist for further evaluation and management.

Question 2

I'm really concerned about my breathing issues that have been going on for 8 months now. It gets worse when I lie down, and when I wake up, I find myself burping a lot. There's also this feeling like somethings stuck in my throat every couple of days. After doing physical activities, I struggle with rapid breathing. I've even had experiences with chest tightness and a bloated stomach. Plus, I can't sleep in air-conditioned rooms or in cooler temperatures. What could be going on, and what should I do?

Accepted Answer

take tablet pantop for 5 days once a day

Question 3

I've been dealing with lax esophagitis and pangastritis for 10 years and have been on PPIs the whole time. The side effects from the meds are getting to me should I consider surgery or stick with the PPIs?

Accepted Answer

Long-term PPI use for esophagitis may cause side effects. Anti-reflux surgery (like fundoplication) is considered when lifestyle and medicines fail.

I'm experiencing a tight feeling in my stomach and a lot of gas. I don't really want to eat or drink water, and I'm feeling pretty weak because of it. Could you recommend any tablets for better bowel movements? I'm not sure what to do.

Patient is advised tab ciplox tz orally ,twice daily for 5 days, tab pantocid dsr orally ,once daily ,before food for 5 days, ors one sachet daily for 2 days atleast is advised to the patient.
