Can I Take Esomeprazole As Needed?
Hello doctor can I take esomeprazole whenever I get symptoms on and off for example only for a day
Surgical Gastroenterologist
Answered on 6th Aug '24
If you are having symptoms like heartburn, digestive laxatives, or acid reflux on and off, it is advisable to avoid esomeprazole as a self-medication. The possible reason for these symptoms is the malfunction of your stomach acid. However, talking with a gastroenterologist will enable you to arrive at the appropriate treatment alternative. Taking esomeprazole without appropriate consultation may not eliminate the actual cause of your symptoms.

Good morning sir Im indian... Working in oman. Last 2 weeks back i go hospital.. Doctor checked told me h pylori bacteria... Given medicines....how i cure.... Pls help me
Male | 35
You might have an H. pylori infection. This bacteria can cause stomach pain, make your belly feel uncomfortable, and even cause a heavy head or cold sweats after meals. It can also lead to stomach ulcers. The good news is that it can be treated with a combination of antibiotics and acid-relief medication. Be sure to follow your doctor’s instructions and complete the full course of treatment to fully eliminate the bacteria. y.

I am a teenage female. Late last night my stomach started to hurt and throughout the night it got progressively worse. The pain is in the upper right abdomen and it radiates towards the top middle too. I’ve taken Advil but it won’t go away. What should I do?
Female | 15
You might have an issue with your gallbladder on the information I have got. It is in the upper right side of the stomach. The area on your right hip with either an inflamed or stone gallbladder might give you severe pain that will sometimes get worse and affect the upper portions of your body. Pain-healing medications like Advil will not be very effective for this type of situation. Consult your doctor for proper diagnosis and examination to get a cure for your condition.

Having problem during toilet found pain and found blood in stool.
Male | 34
This could mean you have piles, that are lumps inside and around your bottom that contain swollen blood vessels. Other symptoms include feeling itchy and seeing drops of red liquid in the toilet after wiping. To alleviate the situation, ensure you take in a lot fluids, eat more fiber such as fruits and vegetables, and use nonprescription ointments. If none of this works after some time then one must see a gastroenterologist immediately.

I woke up to a weird feeling in my chest and whenever I do fast or intense activity for example jump or run I feel something go up to my throat and make me cough it doesn’t hurt just a little weird
Male | 18
Your symptoms could be of acid reflux or the more severe form called the gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Acid reflux can be defined as the condition where the liquid in the stomach drains back into the throat area, causing a burning sensation in the chest and throat. I recommend you to see a gastroentroogist who will help you to diagnose your condition and propose the proper treatment.

Today i ate small piece of finger nail with food does it cause any problem or it will dissolve.. I'm confused what to do please help
Female | 24
Don’t freak out if you accidentally swallow a little piece of fingernail. It’s not a big deal for your body – it can handle stuff like that. If it’s tiny, it’ll probably go through without causing any problems. Drink lots of water though – this will help it move along easily. And if you start hurting anywhere or feeling sick or notice anything strange then definitely talk to a gastroenterologist.

Hello. I have been diagnosed with underactive thyroid since 3 weeks and I was prescribe with L Thyroxin 25. On the 1st week I started to take it everyday in the morning 30 min before breakfast, everything was fine. Then on 2nd week, I started again my birth control pills which is Asumate 30. And from the moment that I have started again my birth control pills and the L Thyroxin 25, I have been having diarrhea problem for 2 weeks until today still on going. I am not sure what is the issue , can you help please ?
Female | 28
I think you might have a stomach upset. When you take birth control pills with L Thyroxin, you might experience diarrhea. This could mean that the combo is affecting your gut. Keep yourself hydrated and consider taking the drugs at different times during the day. If it doesn’t stop, talk to a doctor so they can advise accordingly.

Boanzee is a drug that cures stomach problems. It is specifically used for dyspepsia; this may cause bellyache, inflation, as well as an overstuffed feeling after eating. Indigestion can occur when we eat hurriedly or consume some specific types of food. Nonetheless, Boanzee will soothe your belly thus relieving the discomfort.

I FEAR DOCTORS!!! I was put in a coma in 2016 & was near death the 3rd day. I didn't come out of the coma till the 7th day. I found out last year, that my diagnoses was kept from me. I was told in 2016, it was only bc of trigeminal neuralgia, septic shock and ARDS. HOWEVER, I learned last year that I was also diagnosed with pulmonary edema, emphysema, a mild heart attack, a cyst on my right kidney, a damaged liver, they removed my gallbladder .... along with the Septic Shock, trigeminal neuralgia and ARDS!! I also saw that I was overdosed on the 3rd day in the coma on 1 of my epilepsy meds. I've been an epileptic since about a year old from a spider bite. So, throughout my life I've taken multiple meds. In 2016, I was taking 400mg of Lamictal, 300 mg of tegretol (which i was overdosed on in the coma) & I was also on 500mg of Dilantin then. I went to the hospital for weeks bc, my chest had been killing me, I had trouble breathing bc it hurt to take a breath, I got wicked headaches often, dizzy spells & body weakness. I was put in the coma the next day. Again I was only told about the Septic Shock, trigeminal neuralgia and ARDS. Shortly after the coma, my neurologist put me on 600 mg of Lamictal, 400mg of toprimate, 2000mg of levetiracetam & 1800 mg of felbamate. In 2019, my old neuro told me i had "mental issues". Throughout the years since, I've had sepsis 1 time & Septic shock twice. After I moved & found a new neurologist I learned that toprimate & Lamictal weren't for my type of epilepsy. Although i have seizures often, they were not helping my epilepsy or any of my health. I saw a neuro physiologist after my VNS battery was changed & he diagnosed me w late stage 1 alziemers due to the seizures, meds & 2 brain surgeries on my temperol lobe and agreed that Lamictal & toprimate weren't helping. My neurologist took me off toprimate but wanted to have my kidneys, liver & heart checked before he took me off Lamictal bc both levetiracetam and Felbamate can mess w those & taking me off Lamictal he plans on upping one of those. So he put me on Lamictal xr to help stop my dizzy spells & had me see a cardio, a pulmonary, a liver doc and a kidney doc. They saw the scaring on my heart & an irregular heart beat, the cyst on my right kidney, emphysema & my liver scared, w fatty tissue and enlarged to 21cm. When they asked me about pains and or unusual issues i had, I only told my neuro physiologist first, bc I remembered what my old docs put me through. Ive not been completely diagnosed bc my liver will swell up for weeks (& I know when it does bc pains r indescribable), but then the swelling will go down. I've chest pains when my liver swells, I also have periods when it hurts all around my stomach & back to stand up straight or sit straight up. My periods been irregular for years. I'll be incapable of eating sometimes bc of pain all around my stomach. The right side of my back is excruciating sometimes. I'm incapable of holding urine & sometimes I don't feel I have to go or realize I'm going. My urine is red every few weeks but will go back to almost orange or sometimes ... it'll look like water. My new doctors have seen it all in urine tests. My feet swell up sometimes to where my legs will hurt when I where socks bc theyre too tight. I don't get headaches as often now, but when I get them, the pain can't be explained. I've diarrhea constantly & I have for years. My shoulders were in unreal pain this past year a few times, for a few days. I'm not asking for a recommendation bc again, I fear doctors due to them overdosing me in a coma & keeping medical info & records from me. I just want an idea of what this is!! Yes I smoke. I have since I was 14 (26years). No I DO NOT AND WILL NOT DO DRUGS!!! Biggest reason being my epilepsy, but I've also lost a friend who gave his life to drugs when he got out of the military. I do smoke pot right before bed (I do it to put me in another world to help me sleep bc I have flashbacks of abuse from my x and honestly, i will say that sometimes it'll help the pain im in). I HAVEN'T TOUCHED ALCOHOL IN 3 YEARS! From the end of 2018 to 2020, I was an alcoholic due to doctors refusing to help me, abuse from my x and the pains I was experiencing. However, when I left my x, I stayed w christian friends & w/in 1 month, I gave my life to Christ ???? When pains act up or symptoms, I simply pray ?. BC God IS ? Im living proof to that!! He's the only reason I made it out of my coma. It's on the records that, they didn't comprehend my coming too. However, it's also on the records of an eeg when I was in it that I was having a dream while in the coma. (& Its A dream that I will never forget!!?) There's times when I'm indescribably nautious! The pains and issues I've explained come and go non stop. What is this and why is it ignored by my new docs who tested everything and diagnosed what was found?

The condition indicates difficulty with bowel movements. It could happen if you don't eat enough fiber, do not have enough water, and do not have enough physical activity. Symptoms are abdominal fullness, dry, hard stools, and sluggish bowel movements. Please, consider advice like incorporating fruits, vegetables, and complex carbohydrates into your diet to relieve the symptoms. Daily physical activity and increased intake of water will facilitate the process as well.

Overeating can cause your stomach to feel uncomfortable, which is called indigestion. Some of these symptoms can be caused by eating fatty foods like burgers and fries, as well as drinking alcohol on an empty stomach. To feel better, if you want drink water, eat light foods, and rest.

Pancreas problem and fatty liver
Male | 22
Pancreas problems and fatty liver are two separate medical conditions that can occur independently or sometimes in association with each other. In some cases, more advanced treatment may be necessary. For example, advanced fatty liver disease may lead to cirrhosis, which may require a liver transplant. For pancreas problems, surgery may be necessary in some cases.
Consult with a gastroenterologist or a hepatologist to find out what is the problem exactly.

Stomach pain upper stomach light pain when sitting but when sleep more pin
Female | 18
You are suffering from stomach ache. Pain that is mostly up high and feels light when sitting but gets worse when you lie down can be due to acid reflux. This happens when the acid from your stomach goes back up into your food pipe. Do not put off spicy or fatty food items, eat smaller portions, and do not lie down immediately after finishing your meal. If the pain endures, the next step would be to consult a gastroenterologist.

I have difficulty in eating and drinking cuz whenever i eat, after a few bites I have difficulty in swallowing food like I feel tightness in chest and shortness of breath like I take deep breaths while eating and I fear while swallowing food as if it might block my trachea or I would choke. Last year, I gave my exams and during my exams I took too much stress and didnt eat anything (eating very little whole day or even just bites of food due to exam stress). After that, I encountered somehow same issue as I developed nausea which interfered with swallowing so I feared swallowing. This time, when I gave my exams, I am encountering the situation I told you. What can be this thing and what measures should I take?
Female | 24
You might have Globus pharyngeus, a condition stress or anxiety triggers. It makes swallowing hard, tightens chests, causes shortness of breath, and scares you while eating. Eat slowly in calm places, and breathe deeply. Relax through deep breathing exercises or meditation helps. Drinking lots of water with meals aids swallowing. Consult a gastroenterologist if issues continue.

I eat something eaten by rat accidentally
Female | 15
In their mouths and saliva, rats carry dangerous germs. If you eat food that happened to be gnawed on by a rat, you might develop symptoms such as stomachache, vomiting, or diarrhea. Ensure that you take plenty of water to keep yourself well-hydrated then look out for any serious signs like high fever. Just in case they occur, visit a doctor who will evaluate your condition further.
