I've been having this pain on the right side below my chest for the last two days, especially when I breathe and yawn. I've also been burping all day. This started after I was fasting on Saturday and had liquid fasting on Monday. I did take a gas tablet yesterday, but the pain is still there today when I woke up. I can't visit a hospital right now because of the lockdown and the situation outside. Do you think this could just be gas pain?

I'm really worried because for about a week now, my stools have been yellow and have mucus in them, and I've noticed some red stains as well. I'm also having stomach pain on the right side, and it just feels bloated all the time. Can you help me understand what's going on?

I've been diagnosed with pelvic floor dyssynergia and moderate rectal prolapse along with a small rectocele. My doctor mentioned surgery isn't necessary right now, but I'm wondering if these conditions can actually improve with conservative treatments. What kind of non-surgical options are out there, and what lifestyle changes or exercises should I focus on to manage or even reverse these issues? Really hoping for some detailed guidance on what steps to take.

surgery is advised to the patient.

I've been dealing with going to the toilet 10 to 12 times a day, and sometimes it's even more than that. It's been happening for six months now. Any ideas on what might be going on or suggestions on what I should do about it?

Dog Bite Incident and Potential Infection Risk _Assessment:_ 1. _Minor wound_: The wound was small and healed quickly. 2. _Prompt wound care_: You washed the wound with Dettol liquid, reducing the risk of infection. 3. _Low-risk bite_: The dog's tooth only grazed the skin, and the wound didn't become infected. _Precautions and recommendations:_ 1. _Monitor for symptoms_: Keep an eye out for signs of infection, such as redness, swelling, increased pain, or pus. 2. _Rabies risk is low_: Given the minor nature of the wound and the fact that the dog is still alive and healthy (sleeping in the same place every day), the risk of rabies transmission is low. 3. _Tetanus shot_: If you're not up-to-date on your tetanus vaccinations, consider getting a booster shot. 4. _Consult a doctor_: Schedule a consultation with your primary care physician or an infectious disease specialist to discuss your concerns and determine if any further action is needed. _No need for:_ 1. _Post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) for rabies_: Given the low-risk nature of the incident. 2. _Immediate antibiotic treatment_: Unless symptoms of infection develop.
