I have been struggling with excessive gas for quite some time now, which is rather bothersome. My stomach doesn't actually feel bloated, and I suppose my diet has been fairly standard; I’ve even gone so far as to try and avoid specific foods that might trigger it, but honestly, nothing seems to be making a difference at all.

For a few months now, I’ve been running quite intensely—like, seriously hard—and the odor is just absolutely dreadful. It is truly a catastrophe! I am strongly considering scheduling an appointment with my doctor to get this checked out.😕

So, my hemorrhoids have been acting up constantly lately. Sometimes, after I wipe following a bowel movement, I notice a little bit of bleeding—nothing huge, just small amounts—and there's this stinging sensation right at the opening. I've been applying some ointment for about a week now, which has calmed things down slightly, but what’s really bothering me is this intense stinging in the skin surrounding the area, specifically that space stretching from the anus toward the testicles.

The last time I dealt with an external hemorrhoid, I used Dolokain cream and it actually helped, but man, that area afterward was itching like crazy! Plus, I noticed that the hair in that specific spot seems to have disappeared, and the skin looks... well, how should I put this? It looks sort of dried out. Now, that dryness is causing this stinging sensation. Does anyone know of a solution for this? I have to admit, I'm quite a worrier when it comes to health issues and stuff like that. Is there perhaps a specific cream for such sensitive skin?

I am asking for any help you can provide
Thanks
