Is chest pain post-meal just heartburn?

I’m having pain in my chest after having eaten 3 hours ago, is this heartburn or is it something more serious?

Dr. Samrat Jankar

Surgical Gastroenterologist

Answered on 21st Oct '24

Heartburn occurs when the food pipe carries the stomach acid back up. The symptoms are a burning feeling in the chest or a sore throat after meals. If you suffer from heartburn, consider eating smaller meals, avoiding spicy foods, and lying down after eating, as they will help you deal with it. If the pain continues, see a gastroenterologist.

Hi.Almost 17 days ago I drink my syrup when I drink one spoon I notice that there was some broken glass pieces,very tiny like sugar.i don't know o swallow some or not but I am really worried now what should I have to do now ?

Female | 25

Swallowing broken glass pieces is scary. Small amounts might pass without causing harm, but they could still scratch your throat or stomach. If you're feeling fine, eating soft foods and drinking plenty of water may help it pass safely. However, if you experience pain, vomiting, bleeding, or difficulty swallowing, seek medical care immediately.

A gastric balloon can be implanted by a gastroenterologist. It is a minimally invasive procedure in which a small balloon is placed in your stomach that helps you feel fuller and thus reduces food intake.

I'm worried about my 40-year-old sister who had gastric bypass surgery. Can you provide insights into what to expect or look out for in terms of health issues and care 15 years after gastric bypass?

Female | 40

After gastric bypass surgery, it is necessary to monitor the condition of your sister. She might develop complications like malnutrition, dumping syndrome and hernias. It is advisable to see a gastroenterologist who practices bariatric surgery for regular appointments and tips on healthy living.

Can i take probiotics capsules with liver syrup?

Male | 27

You can usually take probiotic capsules along with liver syrup. Probiotics add beneficial bacteria for gut health, while liver syrup supports liver function. Taking both may help maintain a well-balanced gut, but it's best to take them at different times of the day to ensure they work effectively. Always follow the directions on the labels for the best results.
