I've been having pain on my right side for about two weeks now, especially when I lay on my left side. It's pretty uncomfortable, and I'm starting to worry. What could be causing this, and should I be concerned?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
The persistent pain on your right side, exacerbated by lying on your left side, could be related to various factors, including muscle strain, gallbladder issues, kidney stones, or even a herniated disk; consider consulting a healthcare professional for a thorough evaluation, including physical examination and potentially imaging tests, to determine the underlying cause and appropriate treatment.

I've been dealing with a fissure issue and my homeopathy doctor prescribed oral meds along with liquid drops for sitz baths. Just wanted to check if this treatment approach sounds right or if surgery might be needed down the line. The discomfort's been bothering me and I'm not sure how effective these remedies are long-term
Homeopathy and sitz baths may help mild cases, but chronic fissures usually need surgery like LIS or laser. Track symptoms and pain.

I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed with my recent diagnosis from Apollo Hospital. They found 5 ulcers in my digestive tract and said I have IBD, specifically Crohn's disease, along with cough variant asthma. They did a colonoscopy, abdomen CT scan, fecal test, and a bunch of blood tests. Now I'm on medication for IBD and Crohns, and theyve given me an inhaler for the cough. Im a bit worriedshould I expect any side effects from the meds, and how can I manage these conditions effectively on a daily basis? Any advice on diet or lifestyle adjustments would be really helpful.
The diagnosis of Crohn's disease, a type of Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), and cough variant asthma is based on comprehensive testing, and the prescribed medications, likely including aminosalicylates, immunomodulators, or biologics for Crohn's, and bronchodilators or corticosteroids for asthma, aim to manage symptoms, induce remission, and prevent complications.
