Hello I am 13, and I have been suffering from acid reflux for about a month. I have talked to 2 doctors. I have been prescribed pepcid about 2 weeks ago. So my 2 week trial is over. But still I suffer from it. All pepcid was able to do is ease the symptoms a bit. How do I ease my anxiety and get rid of this illness forever?

Acid reflux can be caused by stress and anxiety, as well as dietary and lifestyle choices. You can manage stress and anxiety through relaxation techniques such as deep breathing, yoga, or meditation. If your symptoms persist despite medication and lifestyle changes, your doctor can recommend additional testing or referral to a specialist.

I have continuous hiccups from morning..can't control it

Male | 21

Hiccups are caused by a muscle under the lungs called the diaphragm getting agitated is the main reason behind it. This may be caused by the fact that you eat faster, are stressed, or swallow a lot of air. To deal with the hiccups, you can try holding your breath for a couple of seconds, then sipping cold water, or gently scaring yourself. If they persist for more than 48 hours, you should see a doctor.

I have anal fissures, using anasol it doesn't bleed anymore but can u prescribe any oral medication

Female | 35

It is a positive step that the bleeding has stopped with Anasol, but let us find an oral medication for your anal fissures. These are the reasons which cause it when the skin around your bottom tears. It can lead to pain and bleeding when you poo. To help them heal, you can take stool softeners like psyllium husk or docusate sodium. These can cause going to the bathroom to be quicker and less painful. Besides, you should drink a lot of water too.

Dear Dr. , Good morning I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to seek your medical advice regarding several health issues I have been experiencing recently. These symptoms are affecting my daily life, and I am concerned about their underlying causes. Below is a detailed description of the symptoms I am facing: 1. **Immunity and Oxygen Problems:** I have been feeling unusually fatigued and prone to frequent infections, which makes me concerned about my immune system. Additionally, I sometimes experience shortness of breath and dizziness, indicating possible issues with oxygen delivery. 2. **Digestive Issues:** I am suffering from constipation and bloating. My stools are irregular, and there is a persistent bad smell in my flatulence. These symptoms are accompanied by a feeling of discomfort in my stomach. 3. **Body Cramps:** I frequently experience cramps in various parts of my body. These cramps can be quite painful and are affecting my mobility and comfort. 4. **General Malaise:** There is an ongoing sense of unease and a strange feeling within my body that I cannot specifically describe. It is a general sense of not feeling well, which is concerning and distressing. 5. **Throat Mucus:** I often feel as though there is mucus stuck in my throat. This sensation is especially pronounced in the mornings, and drinking water or brushing my teeth can sometimes make me feel like I am going to vomit. Given the variety and persistence of these symptoms, I am worried about my overall health and well-being. I would greatly appreciate it if we could schedule an appointment to discuss these issues in detail and undergo any necessary examinations or tests to determine the root causes and appropriate treatments. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your guidance and assistance in improving my health. Sincerely, irfan Advocate Civil court Varanasi Mobile no -9454950104,7275631533

If you have been experiencing fatigue, frequent illnesses, or difficulty breathing this could mean that your immune system is weak or you have low oxygen levels. Also constipation, bloating, and smelly gas could be signs of digestive problems. Muscle cramps are not only painful but can also be very uncomfortable at times. The ‘weird’ sensation that you mentioned and any throat mucus might also be connected to overall wellness issues in your body. Therefore, you must see a medic so that they may examine you thoroughly and offer appropriate remedies for these signs.

I been on omeprozole for more than 3months i been taking it well but recently i am having lots of cramps and body twitches i was put on panko denk an i am still having cramps and twitches and added side effects headache nasuea what can be done to have this problem resolve

Female | 31

The symptoms might be related to the drug such as cramps, muscle spasms, headache, and feeling sick. Some drugs can cause such issues at times. You must inform your physician about these signs. They may prescribe a different medication or adjust the dose to minimize these side effects. Do not discontinue the drug until you have consulted your doctor.

I’ve had constipation for six months and I have been using dulcolax every week to help, however this week when I used my dose, I felt nauseous and didn’t feel my normal budge in stool. I suspect I have impacted stool or some sort of blockage. I tried 2 enemas however after using them (lying on my left, inserting it for 5 minutes and staying still) it didn’t work. My main question is If I’m having impacted stool should I take miralax powder , dulcolax pills, or suppositaries, or a third enema Or book a colonic treatment? thank you

Male | 17

If you feel sick after taking Dulcolax you may need to try a different method. When stool is impacted it means that the poo has become stuck and will not come out very easily. Use Miralax powder which can help to soften it. You can mix it with a drink and take it according to the instructions on the packet. Make sure you also drink lots of water. If there is no change when using Miralax then you should speak to a healthcare professional for further advice.

I have eaten Kirkland multivitamin gummies more than 8 in one day since 3 days I am feeling like symptoms of nausea dizziness stomach upset pain in ribs getting anger easily changing in mood swings . What to do now

Female | 17

Taking too many gummy vitamins can cause issue­s. Exceeding the sugge­sted dose leads to vitamin ove­rload - nausea, dizziness, stomach upset, rib pain, and mood change­s may occur. To recover, stop the gummie­s and drink lots of water. This flushes exce­ss vitamins out. Eat a balanced diet for natural nutrient intake­. If symptoms continue or worsen, consult a doctor.
