I'm having this really uncomfortable pain in my lower left abdomen, and it seems to be spreading to my back. It hurts even more when I'm sitting down, especially on the back side. I'm not sure why this is happening. Should I be worried about it? What could be causing this kind of pain?

Could be indicative of a kidney stone. I would recommend taking over-the-counter pain relief medication such as Tylenol (acetaminophen) 500mg every 4-6 hours as needed for pain. It is important to drink plenty of water to help flush out the kidney stone. If the pain persists or worsens, please seek medical attention for further evaluation and management.

Question

I've been dealing with stomach bloating every morning and night, especially around meal times, and it's also giving me really bad backaches. It's so bad that I need extra back support just to sit. I've tried antacids and things like Pan40, Pudin Hara, and Digene, but they only help for a little while. This has been going on for over two years, and it's been getting worse in the last few months. What could be causing this, and what else can I try for more lasting relief?

Question

I've been having this stomach issue where I burp all day long, and it's driving me crazy. No matter what I eat or drink, even if it's just water, I end up burping like crazy afterward. It feels like there's something off. Could you help me figure out what's going on? I'm a bit worried and looking for some advice.

Question

I'm really concerned right now. A couple of months ago, I had typhoid, but everything seemed fine afterward. I did an ultrasound and all my tests came back normal, so I went back to my usual diet. But recently, after a weekend of drinking more alcohol than usual, I experienced a hangover that felt really strange. I went to the hospital, and while most of my liver function test results were normal, my bilirubin levels were highBilirubin Total was 2.2, Direct was 0.9, and Indirect was 1.3. The ultrasound showed nothing abnormal, though. My doctor prescribed some ursodeoxycholic acid tablets and anti-reflux meds, and suggested we repeat the liver function test after 15 days. I'm pretty worried about this whole situation. Could this be linked to my past typhoid, or did the alcohol play a bigger role? What should I be keeping an eye on? This is stressing me out.
