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?
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.

Since then I have kept off the 220 lbs, but have had malabsorption, anemia, Iron defecencies ( needing several infusions over the years) I take cholesterol and B12 injections monthly. I can't do straight milk and have been using lactose milk for years. I have had kidney issues( stage3rd 3) IPMN, bleeding ulsers and other issues. The main thing is this nagging pain on my upper left side that they can never discover the cause and then brush off when tests come back neg. Recently had an MRI that showed a narrowing in my bile duct,( which has come up in past cat scans and Previous MRI) and they brush off and say it's stable... The pain mood swings, non sleep bowel change, weight up and down,non sleep and list can go on without mentioning my lab numbers.iwas scheduled for an EUC/ECRP then he canceled it as" he realized I was a gastric patient.. The pain is there and I am at a loss.. Something is wrong, I don't want anything serious to happen to me as I have a9 yr old to raise I'm only 60 What should I do?? Help me
Female | 60
The left upper side hurt may relate to bile duct narrowing. This tube carries bile from liver to intestines. Narrowing can block bile, causing pain, issues. Seek your gastroenterologist's advice. Perhaps get a specialist review, familiar with your gastric bypass surgery effects. They can recommend actions to ease symptoms, prevent complications.

Why I am getting stomach pain with full back pain and right hand and left leg pain and nausea
Female | 17
You seem to be experiencing extreme discomfort. Stomach pains, back aches, limb pains, and nausea together indicate potential spinal or nerve issues. Sometimes, a localized problem radiates pain elsewhere. It's wise to consult a gastroenterologist to diagnose and treat the underlying cause properly.

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.

Where can i have a gestrichen balon?
Female | 61
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.

Female | 39
Pain starting in the middle of the chest and then extending to the person's back is a possible symptom of either acid reflux or heartburn. When there is an increase in swelling and at the same time intense pain, the possibility of inflammation in the digestive system cannot be ruled out. Eating smaller meals, avoiding spicy dishes, and sitting up after meals are some non-pharmacological measures largely recommended for acid reflux. Consult a Gastroenterologist for personal therapy when no result is seen after medication use.

My mother of age 64 has problem in breathing while swallowing saliva ,eating spicy foods,etc and also sometimes for the smell of chillies while frying.what should we do as a first aid at that moment of time?
Female | 64
This could be because of a condition called dysphagia, which is the difficulty in passing food down the throat. She could opt for taking in smaller sizes and try her best to keep away from hot foods. Water is also another good option. In case the condition persists, she should visit a gastroenterologist for appropriate diagnosis and treatment.

Hello doctor good morning, I'm Rajesh Kumar from West Bengal. Doctor I'm suffering from piles during 15 days I use medicine with help of doctor consultation. I feel very pain on anus area. I nothing understood what I do. At the anus area only pain happened not bleeding aa another thing.
Male | 26
It appears that you are suffering from pain in the anus area. This can be a common sign of piles, also known as hemorrhoids. Piles can be the reason for unpleasant sensations and pain, particularly when passing stool. The main reason for piles is the raised pressure in the blood vessels near the anus. To help with the pain, you can first, soak in hot water baths, apply over-the-counter creams, and, eat high-fiber foods to prevent straining while passing stool. If the pain continues or gets worse, it's time to talk with a gastroenterologist about other treatment options.

If the roko tablets weren't helpful, it could be an infection, food poisoning, or a stomach bug. Moreover, drink plenty of water to keep your body hydrated. Eating simple foods like rice, toast, and bananas will also help. If it continues, it's best to visit a gastroenterologist.

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.

I have a pain in the lower right side of my stomach. It feels palpable. It's been a day. Does it indicate any major problem?
Male | 36
The pain if it is stretched can be caused by different reasons like gas, constipation, or even the inflammation of a small infection. Sometimes, the pain can last for one or two days and then disappear on its own. However, if the pain becomes more severe, or you experience other symptoms such as fever or vomiting, consult a gastroenterologist for further instructions.

You’re having a tough time with chronic constipation, weight loss, depression, anxiety, and nervousness. These symptoms may be related. Being constipated all the time can make you feel low and edgy, plus it may affect your weight. Ensure you have plenty of fluids such as water and eat foods that are high in fiber so that you can keep regular. Moreover, tell somebody how you feel because this might help reduce the feelings of anxiety or depression.

I'm 26 years, an exchange student in Spain. Sunday 10.11 I went to the hospital because I had severe belly ache but they said it's only gas trapped in the belly. Ever since I had discomfort in my belly and only the medicine Buscapina helped me. yesterday for the first time I had pain in my chest, but it dissapeared after 20 minutes.
Female | 26
The chest pain that you had might have been because of the gas. The gas in your stomach might be exerting your chest. Try to eat fewer meals, stay away from gassy foods, and keep your body well-hydrated if you can. If the pain comes back or worsens, consult a gastroenterologist.

I m 40 years old. I m suffering from fissure in anus. It gives me pain
Male | 40
Fissures are little rips in the skin around the anus. Passing hard stools, diarrhea, or inflammatory bowel disease can cause them. To heal the fissure, drink plenty of water, eat foods high in fiber, and use stool softeners. You might need creams or ointments too so that it does not hurt as much and heals faster.
