On 11th of June I remove my cholesterol test and it was high around 231 and my weight was 83 but today on 15th when I check my weight is 81 so two kg reduce and going gym as well and last 5 days no oil no masala..eating avocado fruit and healthy dieting ...so today I am going with my family for dinner so I can eat something from restaurant?
Male | 27
The level of bad cholesterol in the blood is capable of giving you a high risk of heart problems. Reaching a state of healthy weight and the right food choices one can use as supplementary units can help reduce hypercholesterolemia. Because you've been doing so well, you may eat out, but make sure you choose wisely. Prefer alternatives like roasted chicken or fish with greens instead of those stewed or cheesy dishes.

Why I have abdominal pain
Female | 14
Abdominal discomfort can occur due to various reasons. It may stem from consumed food items or gastrointestinal distress. If localized in the lower right area, appendicitis could be the culprit, requiring immediate medical attention. Alternatively, gas accumulation or constipation can also trigger such pain. Consuming smaller portions, staying hydrated, and engaging in physical movement may alleviate gas or constipation-related discomfort. However, if the pain persists or intensifies, visit a gastroenterologist.

As a result, hemorrhoids can be due to straining during bowel movements, overweight, or sitting on the toilet for a long time. To get relief from the discomfort, drink enough water, eat foods rich in fiber such as fruits and vegetables, or use over-the-counter creams if necessary. Nevertheless, if the condition lasts longer, make sure you go to the doctor.

I have issues in my anal as lymph came out of anal n it's hurts when poop tym it's very unbearable pls suggest me what's this so I can get treatment.
Female | 44
It seems that you have an ailment known as an anal crack. This condition is characterized by cracks in the skin around the anus, which can lead to blood and/or injury in the rectum. This may be from being constipated, having diarrhea, or simply surviving hard stools. To relieve the pain and the healing process, you should see a dietician who will give you foods rich in fiber. Also, a glass of water every day and the use of over-the-counter creams to cover the corroded area can be used to help ease the pain and promote the area to heal. For sure, the area troubles you, however, you are urged to seek help if the techniques have failed and no improvement has been noticed.

Transmission of hepatitis C may involve contact with infected blood and/or sharps such as needles. Even if the needle does not have any water therein, the stick and pokes use can still result in viral infections. It will be good to see a hepatologist or a gastroenterologist if you have reason to think your chances of Hepatitis C are high.

Having diarrhea or soft poop could be due to many things such as infections or food sensitivities while difficulty passing stool could mean constipation. You need to eat more fiber, drink plenty of water, and also go for a medical check-up to know exactly what is wrong with you.

• Hepatitis B carriers are persons who carry the hepatitis B virus in their blood but do not experience symptoms. Between 6% and 10% of persons infected with the virus will become carriers and will be able to infect others without knowing it.
• A considerable proportion of chronic hepatitis B (HBV) patients are in the inactive carrier state, which is characterised by normal transaminase levels, limited viral replication, and little liver necroinflammatory activity. After at least one year of frequent monitoring, a diagnosis is made, and lifelong follow-up is required to ensure that this status is maintained.
• In case there is no improvement in HBVDNA levels, consult your expert but do not stop the medication on your own.
• Drugs prescribed such as Tafero (tenofovir) acts by ceasing the production of new viruses, blocks or slows viral proliferation in human cells, and eliminates the infection and also boost the level of CD4 cells (white blood cells that fight infection) in your blood. Entaliv (entecavir) acts by inhibiting the viral replications processes like reverse transcription, DNA replication and transcription.
• Seek the advice of a hepatologist so that your treatment may be adjusted according to your specific needs and preferences.

I have throat burning sensation since 2 months and not able to take spicy sour food …
Female | 34
You've been feeling a burning sensation in your throat for 2 months, which could be due to acid reflux. This happens when stomach acid comes back up into the food pipe, irritating the throat. It's a good idea to avoid spicy and sour foods for now. Try eating smaller meals, avoid lying down right after eating, and raise the head of your bed slightly. Drinking plenty of water might also help. If the symptoms don't improve, it would be wise to visit a gastroenterologist for further examination and treatment options.

Female | 58
Piles oriented as hemorrhoids can sit uncomfortably. Defining features are potential pain, itching, and bleeding in the area around the bottom. Strains during bowel movements, sitting still long, or lacking fiber in the diet are reasons for it. Alternatives may include a high-rope diet, drinking lots of water, and applying top-rated ointments on the skin. Take care of your diet and go to a gastroenterologist if necessary.
