Having Lump on back from last 10 years with no pain but from last few days there is a redness around the lump with pain ,the redness increasing day by day please suggest what to do attached pic for ref

I had a fistuletomy surgery in Nov 2023. The wound has almost healed, and discharge from the wound had almost stopped. But 5 days back, i had a hard bowel movement, due to which i had bleeding of 5-6 drops of blood. Since then, there has been very little discharge seen in the anus. The discharge is just 1 or 2 drops. I visited a surgeon and got it examined who said the bleeding has caused a fissure and the discharge is from the fissure. Is that correct? Does fissure on wound cause discharge? I could not find this information on the internet, so i am a little concerned. Also, 15 days back, i got a fistulogram, and the report said i do not have any abscess and no fistula track is seen.

Is it normal for a 53 years old woman to have  vertigo after 3 months of gall bladder removal through laparoscopy?

My husband (43 y old) has Pitiutary Aden'oma surgery 20 years ago (2004) , and after that, he has been taking the following medicines Rx- Prednisolone 5 Eltroxin 25 but over the past 5-6 years, he has been very irregular in taking these medications for the last couple of months. I think he almost stopped taking them. We do all the blood work every 7-8 months, and his reports are normal all the time. Only an eye doctor once prescribed an MRI (a year ago), and it was all good. So, I am curious if he really needs these meds. Every time we ask the doctor, he says meds are critical for him, but on the ground, it does not seem like that? And there are side effects like increased cholesterol because of the meds in the past?

I am writing this to convey my message to all General surgeon. Just because corporate insurance cover all biopsy test, that does mean you guy can do biopsy for amy surgery u do. Biopsy results take 5 7 days to comes and u can not imagine stress of paitent for that 5 7 days. Normal cyst can be rules out with just ultrasound and surgery. Please try to understand level of anxities and stress paitent go thought. Please do biopsy only when it iw extremely required.
