Question

I swallowed warm food too quickly and now my esophagus is really hurting every time I cough or try to eat or drink something. Is this normal, and should I be worried? What can I do to make it stop hurting?

I understand your concern and frustration. The buzzing sound (tinnitus) and tragus pain after earwax removal could be due to: - Ear canal irritation - Middle ear muscle spasms - Temporary nerve sensitivity Consult your ENT doctor again to discuss: - Further examination and treatment - Tinnitus management options (e.g., sound therapy, counseling) - Pain relief measures (e.g., topical anesthetics, warm compresses) Remember, tinnitus can be managed, and symptoms may improve with time and proper care.

Question

I've been dealing with acid reflux for the past 18 months and have been taking pantoprazole quite often. I've heard that LINX surgery might be a good solution for this issue. Could you please give me some advice on whether this would be a suitable option for me?

Question

I'm a bit worried because my recent blood test showed that my SGOT is 98 and my SGPT is 133, which I know is higher than usual. What can I do to lower these levels and get them back to normal?

Question

I've been struggling with this issue for months. Whenever I stand for a long time or walk a bit, I get this weird sweaty feeling around my anus, and I notice stains on my underwear that match that pattern. Also, when I poop, there's this white foam in it, and it just won't go away. The doctor had me get a perianal ultrasound, and everything looked fine, probably because they only checked the outside. They also mentioned it wasn't a fistula. I'm at a loss about what to do next. Can you help me figure this out?
