Could external hemorrhoids cause swelling without pain?

I had fissure last week, took some medicine from a nearby doctor, now moved to a different place. No pain but feels like some swelling down side , kind of external hemorrhoids.

They are the veins around the anus that have become deformed due to too much blood being trapped inside. They are caused by straining during bowel movements (sitting for a long time) or recognizing weight. You may try drinking lots of water, eating high-fiber foods, not straining when going to the bathroom, and relaxing your bowels when going to the bathroom. Exposing the area to warm compresses is one of the easiest solutions, however, you can also get good pain relief by using over-the-counter creams.

My stomach is empty and upset and I'm unable to drink water without feeling nauseous. I've taken pepto bismol and I've been eating bread yet nothing's helping. What do I do?

Female | 21

It seems like you might have gastritis. This occurs when the lining of your stomach becomes inflamed and can result in feelings of queasiness as well as an upset stomach. Consuming bread or using Pepto-Bismol may not help alleviate these symptoms. To keep hydrated, try drinking clear fluids such as broth or ginger tea. Additionally, you should avoid eating spicy foods that could further irritate it since they tend to be acidic too while fatty ones take longer to digest besides causing discomfort hence worsening the situation even more should this happen. For proper treatment seek medical attention if they persist beyond what is expected.

Hello my name is amna i am 29 years old i am taking antidepressants and it cause indigestion so can i take gaviscon syrup with antidepressants ?

Female | 29

Indigestion can indeed be a common adverse effect of some antidepressants. Gaviscon syrup is generally safe and may relieve the pain caused by acid reflux. However, it is always better to check with your healthcare provider before you take any kind of medication. They can give you individualized advice based on your particular antidepressant and general health. However, try some habits like eating less and staying away from triggers like spicy foods.

Had the flu week ago….all the symptoms…. Stool clay color, now having pain under right rib cage…2 days ago started having loose stools every time eating something…Stool getting back to normal color now… No abdominal pain and no back pain….Is this something be concerned with… Do not take med only Tylenol….

Female | 65

Your flu last wee­k messed with your digestion. The­ clay-colored poop is likely due to a live­r or gallbladder hiccup. That rib pain on your right side? It connects. The­ loose stool after eating shows your body's still he­aling. But since your poop's regaining color and pain's mild, just rest up. Drink lots of wate­r. Eat simply digestible foods. If that rib ache pe­rsists or intensifies, see­ a doctor. For now, your body's recovering from illness.

Hi sir I am Amresh Jha 25 years old I am unable to weight gain I took cancellation a gestroloist he did endoscopy fir celic I have no symptoms but doctor confirm celiac deses endoscopy biopsy final report is atrophic mucosa i want to know what's means atrophic mucosa and I have a doubt I eat gutkha also it's a gluten issue or gutkha also effect small instentine

Male | 25

The­ "atrophic mucosa" means the lining of your gut is unhealthy. Eating gutkha can hurt your gut, but it doe­s not relate to gluten. With ce­liac disease, you may have diarrhe­a, weight loss, and feel tire­d. The fix is following a strict no-gluten diet. This me­ans avoiding foods with wheat, barley, and rye. By doing this, your gut can he­al up and you will feel bette­r overall.
