I've noticed something strange happening whenever I use the toilet. After I pass stool, the water in the toilet quickly turns yellow, even though my stool itself isn't yellow. On top of that, I've been dealing with some pain in my right abdomen for the past few days. I got a sonography done, and everything looked normal according to the reports. Could you help me understand what's going on?

The changes in the toilet water color and right abdominal pain are not typical symptoms and could indicate a deeper issue related to bile production, liver function, or malabsorption. Even though your sonography was normal, it's important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation, especially if symptoms persist. Keep track of any other associated symptoms, such as nausea, fever, changes in stool consistency, or appetite loss, and report them to your doctor.

View allI'm really struggling with anal fissures because of constipation for over a year now, and I've been in a lot of pain. I tried seeing a gynecologist, and they gave me some meds for five days, but nothing's changed. I'm usually on a routine in the morning with bowel movements, but it's been painful for so long. I've switched up my diet to include more fiber and fluids, but I still feel the pain. The only relief I get is from using Cremaffin Plus syrup at night and nifecaine cream around bowel movements, but if I miss the syrup even for a night, the pain is unbearable the next day. We're thinking about having kids, but I'm concerned if these medications might affect conception. How long can I keep using the syrup without any long-term effects? Is there a solid solution for my situation, and what can I expect if there's a treatment?
It sounds like you're experiencing chronic pain due to an anal fissure, which can be aggravated by constipation. Despite your efforts with diet and medications, if the pain persists, it might be worth seeking a second opinion, as other treatments like topical nitrates or botox injections could help. Regarding conception, Cremaffin Plus and nifecaine cream are generally safe for short-term use, but it's advisable to discuss them with your doctor during the planning phase. Treatment duration and improvement vary, but typically, with proper management, healing can occur in a few weeks to months.

I've been seeing some light red, almost pink specks of blood on toilet paper for a while now, and it's starting to worry me. What could be causing this?
The presence of blood on toilet paper could be due to various reasons such as hemorrhoids, anal fissures, or gastrointestinal issues. It is important to consult a doctor for a proper diagnosis. In the meantime, you can use over-the-counter medications like Preparation H (contains phenylephrine and shark liver oil) for hemorrhoids or Anovate cream (contains lidocaine and hydrocortisone) for anal fissures. Follow the recommended dosage instructions on the packaging.
