Is it OK to remove stool with finger?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Manual evacuation of stool with finger may be done sometimes but it can cause trauma and anal bleeding if more force is used. It is always better to visit a nearest doctor who can safely help in removing stools.

I've been experiencing severe pain around my knee for a while now, and it's really been bothering me. I think it might be related to gas in my stomach because after it passes, the pain seems to go away. But it's strange because it takes about 45 days for it to fully pass. Is there something I can do to help relieve the gas faster or ease the knee pain in the meantime? I'm really curious about why this is happening and if it's something I should be worried about.
try eating several small meals instead of three large ones whenever you can...Avoid foods that irritate your stomach, especially those that are spicy, acidic, fried or fatty... avoid coffee,tea etc... Avoid Stress as it may make your gastritis symptoms worse...consider calming activities, such as meditation, yoga etc...sleep with head raised position and have dinner at least 2 hours before sleep..take over the counter medications with above...consult physician if symptoms persists...for knee pain take over the counter pain killers and do quadriceps strengthening exercises and Consult nearest orthopedic surgeon they will do the needfu

I'm really worried because for the past 8 months I've had this burning feeling in my throat. It always feels tight, like something's stuck in there. It's pretty uncomfortable. Has anyone else experienced this, and should I be concerned? What could be causing these sensations?
Water in the ear can be uncomfortable. Since ear wax drops aren't providing relief, try: - Ear drying drops (e.g., Otoferm) to help evaporate water - Tilt your head to the side and gently pull on the outer ear to help water drain - Use a warm compress or dry towel to help relieve pain and fullness If symptoms persist or worsen, consult an ENT specialist to rule out: - Ear infection - Eardrum damage - Blockage Avoid using cotton swabs (Q-tips) to avoid pushing water further into the ear.
