I've been feeling something really weird on the left side, just below my ribs for the past three months. It's like a mix of pain, ticklish sensations, and bubbling. At one point, I thought maybe I'd torn a muscle, so I rushed to emergency. They did an ECG, checked my blood pressure, and even took an X-ray, but everything came back normal. I'm on some meds that the doctor gave me from the GD Diabetes Centre like Voveran SR, Pan D, and Trinerve 75. But still, when I touch the area, it hurts a bit, and when I don't, it feels ticklish and painful at the same time. Any idea what's going on or if I should be concerned?

So I've had mild splenomegaly for the last four years and also deal with IBS. I'm really curious if my enlarged spleen might be the reason behind all these digestive problems. Could they be connected?

The ultrasound report indicates "gas distended bowel loops" in your lower abdomen, which means that there is an accumulation of gas in the intestines, causing them to expand. _What does it mean?_ This condition is often related to: 1. _Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)_: A common disorder affecting the large intestine, causing abdominal pain, bloating, and changes in bowel movements. 2. _Functional abdominal pain_: Recurring abdominal pain without any obvious cause. 3. _Gas and bloating_: Swallowing air, eating certain foods, or having food intolerance can lead to gas accumulation. _Why does it occur?_ 1. _Food intolerance_: Lactose, gluten, or high-FODMAP foods can cause gas and bloating. 2. _Eating habits_: Eating too quickly, not chewing food properly, or drinking carbonated beverages can lead to gas accumulation. 3. _Stress and anxiety_: Stress can exacerbate IBS symptoms. _How to cure it?_ 1. _Dietary changes_: Avoid trigger foods, eat smaller meals, and choose low-FODMAP foods. 2. _Probiotics_: Consider taking probiotics to promote gut health. 3. _Stress management_: Practice stress-reducing techniques like meditation, yoga, or deep breathing exercises. 4. _Medications_: Your doctor has prescribed Pansec (Pantoprazole) for acid reflux and Meftal Spas (Mefenamic acid) for pain relief.

I've been dealing with a fissure for over a year now and it keeps coming back every few weeks no matter what I try. I've cut out outside food completely and seen both allopathic and ayurvedic doctors but nothing gives me a permanent solution. Is surgery really my only option at this point or are there other ways to fully heal this

if conservative therapy fails ,fistulectomy is advised.
