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?

I've developed this habit of eating raw rice every day, even in the middle of the night sometimes. It's like I can't control it. Recently, I've been getting stomach aches and I'm noticing a lot of hair loss. Should I be worried about this? Is there anything I can do to stop these symptoms or this craving?

I'm dealing with ulcerative colitis and was wondering if it's okay to masturbate every day. Could this be bad for my condition? I'm just trying to understand if there's any negative impact. Could you please help me with this?

Masturbation is not inherently harmful to individuals with ulcerative colitis. However, its important to listen to your body and be mindful of how it affects your overall well-being. If you experience any negative impact on your UC symptoms, it might be helpful to adjust your habits and consult with a healthcare provider.

I'm really worried because I've had HH for the last 10 years and been on medication, specifically nexpre 20 plain, every day and it's been manageable. But for the last 5 or 6 years, I've noticed blood in my stool occasionally which goes away after a few days. This time something else seems to be happeninglike some kind of flesh is coming out and I have no idea what that could be. Can you help me understand what's going on?
