You should see a gastroenterologist for the assessment of your symptom of chest pain. Whereas the acid reflux might be a possible cause but it is necessary to rule out the other serious diseases like heart problems. Immediate medical attention should be sought without delay to establish an early diagnosis and treatment.

I wanted to ask why is there blood in my stool? I have had some blood in my poop before because of hemorrhoids, but I'm concerned now because this time it was more than just blood on the toilet paper, it was also on the toilet water and in the stool. When I did try to poop, it was hard and some part was sharp too, which is making me think that it was because of that, but I googled why and it made me overthink that I might have a serious problem.

Female | 15

Blood in stool can be caused by different causes like hemorrhoids, anal fissures, inflammatory bowel disease, infections, polyps. But, since there is also blood in the toilet water, so it will be prescient to consult a gastroenterologist immediately. They can do the physical examination, suggest tests, and give the required treatment.

Hi sorry.i suffer with gas /h pylori.i have been having chest pain all week not sharp .I drink alot of water and burps.at night my left arm and lower leg at times feel norm. Sometimes I get head aches to the back of my head. Sometime stiffness in my lower neck

Female | 45

Being in a situation with gas and H. pylori could be very tough for you. The chest pain, burping, arms and legs sensations, headaches, and stiffness of the neck may be due to this. Sometimes, gas may cause chest discomfort and it may spread to the other parts of the body. Water drinking is good! Treatment can include medication to reduce the acid and antibiotics to fight with H. pylori. Rest, eat small meals, and try to stay away from spicy foods.

Vomating like feeling...Khana khane k bad lgta h bahar aa jyga.. Sgpt high Ldl triglycerides high

Male | 30

You are having the impression of wanting to vomit after a meal. This can be a result of the high SGPT and LDL triglycerides content in the body. This is possible to make one uncomfortable. To make this better, your plan should be to consume smaller meals more often, cut down on fatty foods, and drink lots of water. It is also good to do regular exercise to lower these levels.

I'm feeling like my chest is too heavy from yesterday night and abdominal pain and too much headache from 5 days and I'm not getting sleep at night & legs pain and feeling irritating,,,, wanted to be alone and I'm not hungry at all from 1 week

Female | 17

Dealing with chest pressure, abdominal pain, headaches, sleep troubles, and leg pain can be tough, especially when feeling irritable. The cause might be stress, a poor diet, or lack of sleep. Listen to your body—stay hydrated, eat well, rest, and talk to someone about how you're feeling.

morning azithromycin 500 mg and night flagyl 400 can take

Male | 44

You're probably going through an infection. Your doctor is probably targeting different kinds of bacteria using azithromycin 500 mg in the morning and Flagyl 400 mg at night. Do not stop taking the medications even if you start feeling better. Prolong the treatment to ensure complete eradication of the infection. If you have any concerns or notice any unusual side effects, it's important to let your doctor know.

Respectful Sir, When I eat spicy food a little,tongue gradually starts burning, and then runny nose and watery eyes occur.please advice me how to prevent it,Sir.

Male | 30

When you consume spicy foods, your tongue may feel like it's burning and inflamed as a result. Besides the tongue the nose gets along with tears releasing at the eyes. It is because spicy food provokes your whole body to make more mucus in your nose and eyes if you eat it. However, don't worry; you may be relieved this way by eating fewer hot foods or by mixing chilled milk or yogurt with spicy food to decrease hotness.

Constipation can happen due to not eating well or moving around enough. Try to eat more fruits, and veggies, and drink plenty of water. Also, avoid junk food and oily stuff. These changes might help you feel better.

Hi doctor, um, good evening. I'm coming to you today contacting a clinic with an inquiry. (0:07) So I suffer from very bad anxiety and I recently got a therapist which was only like two months (0:14) ago or so. So within that time frame I've had blood tests done, total blood count and all of (0:21) that and it turns out that I'm not anemic. So within I would say like the past weeks or within (0:27) you know the past year or so occasionally I would get like you know stomach symptoms like diarrhea (0:32) or whatever which my doctor thought was probably IBS and I would get the occasional blood or whatever (0:37) when I strain and stuff like that. So um within the past month I was stressing myself out non-stop (0:45) like I'm constantly stressing but I'm hearing people saying now that I lost a bit of weight (0:50) but my stomach, weight, my legs, my whole body they're the same. I just seem to have lost weight (0:56) within my arms and it's making me freak out because recently today I had a bowel movement and (1:02) I saw the tad little bit of blood again and I've been constantly thinking that I have collateral (1:08) aka colon cancer at the age of 22 and it's really freaking me out and I seem to just cannot (1:15) stop thinking that I have that doctor and it's making my anxiety bad and it's giving me suicidal (1:21) thoughts due to the fact that I think that I have this cancer.

Male | 22

It see­ms you're worried about your he­alth, especially colon cancer. Having that cance­r at 22 is rare. Your arm weight loss could be­ from anxiety causing muscle loss. See­ing a therapist is good, but talking to your doctor about your worries may help re­assure you. Take slow, dee­p breaths and try relaxation methods to e­ase anxiety.
