Question

I'm experiencing this pain on the left side of my chest, right around the heart area, and I'm not sure if it's something heart-related. It comes with shortness of breath, a lot of burping, and I've been dealing with some acidity and gastric issues as well. Do you think this is more about my heart or my stomach acting up? Which kind of doctor should I talk to about this?

Question

I'm really worried because about 10 days ago, I drank some ORS powder mixed in water using a copper water bottle, and ever since then, I've been having a lot of stomach issues. It started with loose motion the same day, and now I'm dealing with an upset stomach, gas, cramps, and even vomiting almost every other day. How long do you think it will take before I start feeling better?

Question

I'm experiencing pain just below my right ribs since yesterday. It gets worse when I breathe, laugh, or change positions while sleeping. I'm really concerned about what might be causing this. Could you please help me understand what it could be?

Question

I've recently been dealing with concern after recovering from dengue. My platelets had dropped to 26,000, and I had to get a platelet transfusion. At the time, I was feeling okay, but now I'm experiencing some different symptoms. Sometimes, I get this burning sensation in my stomach and out of the blue, my heart starts hurting. It doesn't really match the typical signs of heart pain, but it bothers me. Also, during dengue, my gallbladder was distended, but it's back to normal now. Should I be worried about these new symptoms? What could be causing them?
