The hot bath and Preparation H cream you are using may provide some relief but you should be aware that bleeding is not a usual cause of hemorrhoids. I advise you to see a specialist, a gastroenterologist, who knows how to diagnose and treat your condition properly. If you have any rectal blood loss symptoms, you should consult a doctor as soon as possible.

Good evening sir, do you have time to talk with me, i am suffering from tonsils or throat infection
Male | 19
It seems you might have tonsillitis. That's when your tonsils get infected and swollen. You'll likely have a really sore throat, making it hard to swallow. Plus, the glands in your neck could swell up too. Tonsillitis usually happens because of viruses or bacteria. To feel better soon, take it easy and drink plenty of warm liquids like tea or soup. Visit your doctor to get relief from this.

Viruses enter your body, causing fevers, headaches, and body aches. These viral infections will go away on their own if you rest and drink plenty of fluids. Over-the-counter medicines can help with the pain. But if your symptoms get worse or don't improve, see a doctor soon.

The benign adipocytes and scattered lymphocytes on your mom's x-ray seem normal. Lymphocytes fight infections, keeping us healthy. There's no way to hide them in an x-ray since they're part of the body's defense system.

I cannot recommend any medications online.. however, there are some self help techniques you can try. Find a consistent sleep schedule, create a sleep friendly environment, practice relaxation techniques, limit screen time before bed and establish a bedtime routine. Self medication is not recommended so it's best to seek professional medical advice.
