Gastroenterology

I am a 19 year old female with a 4 year history of piles. I have pain, a small lump, burning after passing stool, and occasional slight bleeding (few drops of bright red blood). I also have chronic constipation. Without laxatives, I pass stool about twice a week with hard stool and moderate straining. With laxatives, it becomes soft and occurs every alternate day. However, recently laxatives are not working as effectively. I have tried Isabgol (initially helpful but later ineffective). A doctor previously prescribed Movicol, Looz (PEG), and Pruwel 2, which work only while I continue them, constipation returns if I stop. Currently, I am not taking any medication. My questions: 1. Do I need long-term medication or any further tests? 2. Is this still manageable with lifestyle/diet or do I need a procedure/surgery? 3. What is the safest long-term solution for constipation so that piles don’t keep recurring?

I have a problem with bowel movements. I pass stool, feel done, but within a short time (sometimes immediately) I get the urge again and pass some more stool. This happens 2–4 times, as if evacuation is incomplete in one go. No blood, no severe pain. Stool is not very hard. Is this IBS, mild constipation, or an evacuation issue? Should I use lactulose or psyllium — which is better in this case?

Hi. I had my Upper GI endoscopy 3 days back . The report is normal but I am feeling a little irritation in my throat also having a sore throat . I am getting low grade fever from 2 days . There is not any difficulty in swallowing food or any other pain other than little discomfort in throat and chest. Please suggest if this is normal or not.

I have a burning sensation and upper abdominal pain for a week.i consulted doctor. Attaching sonography report

Dear Doctor, I wanted to update you about my condition. This started after I completed a course of antibiotics for a throat infection. The next day, my stool became very hard, but I thought it might be a one-time issue. However, the next day I had sharp pain and was unable to pass stool. I increased my water intake and ate fruits, but there was no improvement. After that, I took Duphalac syrup, but even the next day there was still pain and no relief. Later, I took two Dulcoflex tablets at night, and within about an hour I was able to pass stool and felt completely cleared. The next morning I felt slightly better, but there was still some pain and no bowel movement. Since then, I continue to feel the urge to pass stool, and I can feel it coming, but it does not pass. I am passing gas, and there is no blood. Currently, I still have the urge but am unable to pass stool properly. Could you please advise
