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?

View allI've had piles since childhood and now at 22 I still get pain during bowel movements. Is this something that can be treated with medication or would I eventually need surgery?
For piles, medications like fiber supplements, stool softeners, or anti-inflammatory ointments can offer relief. However, if pain persists, surgery may be needed. Consult a colorectal surgeon for options.

I accidentally drank from a bottle that had marijuana ashes in it and took a big sip before realizing. I ended up vomiting about 20 times and even though I feel a bit better now, my stomach still hurts. Should I be concerned about swallowing ash? How might this affect my health both short and long term? I'm also really worried that some pieces might still be stuck in my throat. What potential health issues should I be aware of from this?

I'm feeling this weird tingling sensation under my left rib cage. Every time I lie on my left side, it feels like something's there, like a slight pressure or touch. I looked it up and it mentioned something about the spleen. Who would be the best specialist to consult about this?
