Question
I am 36 years old and have been feeling unwell recently. Sometimes I feel dizzy during the day, which affects my work, and I have difficulty sleeping at night. The medication I take does not seem to help, so I would like to ask why I often feel uncomfortable after using the bathroom.
Answer
This could be due to perianal dermatitis or itching caused by pinworms or other parasites. It is best to seek a consultation with an anal and rectal specialist. If the examination results are normal, it is still necessary to consider the possibility of parasites, and a stool test can be conducted to confirm this. A hernia occurs when fat tissue or an organ such as the intestine protrudes through a weak or tear in the abdominal muscle, forming a noticeable subcutaneous bulge and accompanied by discomfort and pain. The symptoms become more pronounced when standing for long periods, passing stool, or lifting heavy objects. Hernias cannot be treated with medication; they require surgical repair to fix the defect.
