I've been dealing with this regular mild chest pain that's been moving aroundsometimes it's in my upper abdomen, other times it shifts to the left or right side. I've gone through all the tests like ECG, chest X-ray, lipid profile, USG of the abdomen, thyroid checks, and even had my RBC and WBC levels looked at, and everything came out normal. The doctors said it could be gas-related and suggested PAN 40, which I've been taking, but the pain hasn't really gone away. I havent had any fever since this started happening. Could you advise on what medicine might actually help with this?

Since you have already been taking PAN 40 regularly for your mild chest pain which is suspected to be due to gas, but have not found relief, I would recommend adding another medication to help with your symptoms. You can try taking Ranitidine (Zantac) 150mg twice daily before meals. This medication can help further reduce the production of stomach acid and alleviate your discomfort. Make sure to follow the dosage instructions provided on the packaging. Additionally, continue to monitor your symptoms and follow up with your doctor if the pain persists or worsens.

Question

I'm wondering if it's okay to take 150mg of aciloc before meals twice a day and then have digene syrup after meals. Also, between PANTOCID 40mg and ranitidine, which one is better for dealing with indigestion? I'm trying to figure out the best way to handle this.

Question

I've been dealing with this issue for the last two years where I get this anal discharge once or twice a day. It's like a mild, transparent mucus with an odor, but it's not stool. It mostly happens after I've eaten or when I've exercised. It's not flowing a lot, just stays there, and doesnt stain my clothes, but it's making the area irritated and itchy. And because of the itching, Ive had skin abscesses on my buttock area about 3-4 times in the past year and a half. There's no pain, no constipation, and my bowel movements are regular. What could be causing this, and is there any medicine or treatment I should consider?

Question

I'm really struggling with some left side chest tightness I've been having for the past couple of months. Sometimes it spreads to my shoulder and neck, and it even feels like something is stuck in my throat. I've gone through a bunch of cardiac tests like an ECG, Echo, treadmill test, and blood work, and they've all come back normal. I've also seen an ENT, an internist, and a neurologist. They all say everything looks fine. I'm on meds for my blood pressure (Amlopine 5mg) and cholesterol (Atorvastatin 20mg), and both are normal according to my recent check-up. But I'm still not feeling any better. Any idea what's going on or what I should do next?
