Chronic hyponatremia
Hi everyone, I need a little help.
I’ve been suffering from chronic hyponatremia (low sodium) for the past 2 years. It’s been a persistent issue and can become life-threatening when the sodium drops significantly.
BP tablet is changed to Vinicor, earlier Tazloc H 40. (Been more than a year)
For now I am using natrise tablets whenever the sodium goes below 128 and rising the sodium levels. Life has become very difficult with this.
I tried some ayurvedic doctors on Practo and they are giving diuretics, which will again push me into bigger trouble.
Is there a permanent cure for this in Allopathy or Ayurveda or Homeopathy?
Please let me know.🙏

Lower abdominal pain radiating to legs
I had chronic fissure & bleeding for 6 years . So I underwent kshara sutra thinking it's less painful. But the thread changing sessions went on for 2 months & even after that there was lot of pain & didn't seem like it was healing. So I underwent another fissure tissue removal surgery 4 months ago. I had followed everything doc had told. I was getting better. But I have had pain & can't manage a day without 2 sitz bath. Moreover even after following all that, I've been having a strange lower abdominal pain & further the whole lower body starts paining. More like pulling & burning .I even have the anal pain. There's no bleeding or pus. But pain.I really have no energy to undergo another surgery.This is my 5th surgery & I have other health probs too. Already lost 20kgs coz of previous surgeries.Feeling more weak now. Also want to mention that in college, i had eaten lot of slate pencils for 3 years.Is that the reason?Now i don't eat. I can't quit my job too.Please help & guide 😭 painful

6-Month Foamy Urine
I am 35 years old, 52 kg, height 5'1". I have foamy urine for 6 months (thick, doesn't clear for ~2 min). July 2025 labs: eGFR 95, creatinine 0.9. BP 127/84 (1 month ago). Home dipstick negative for protein. No pitting edema or face swelling, but legs feel heavy/smooth, with leg pain and itching. Also increased thirst despite drinking water. History: PUJ obstruction, pyloplasty 15 years ago, no pain since. Iam attaching foam urine water taken at 12 am and urinated 7:42 and 7:44 am time stamps.
Questions: 1) Could my foamy urine, leg heaviness, itching, mean kidney failure in my case?
2) Is my past PUJ surgery relevant to current symptoms?
3) I am fearing to go to the test if kidney failure is reversible for me

Bubbly Urine
I'm diabetic since 7 years & hypertensive since 3 years.Both of them are under well control.Recently noticing bubbly urine which often lessens or disappears by drinking more water.Test reports of urine acr,serum creatinine,blood urea & potassium done 6 months ago came absolutely fine & normal.Test report of USG (kub) done 1 year ago also came fine & normal.Also,no swelling in any part of the body. Experienced the same condition a year ago but the test reports of urine acr,24 hrs urinary protein,serum creatinine,blood urea & potassium done at that time came absolutely normal & a nephrologist confirmed that this is not due to proteinuria.Still taking telmisartan 40 mg for bp since many months.Also have stage 2 NAFLD.What might be the reason of such bubbly urine ?
