I've been noticing for a while now that whenever I eat, everything tastes way too spicy, and it makes me lose interest after just a few bites. It's like everyone else finds it normal, but for me, it feels like there's too much spice in the food. This has been a thing for the past few years. Also, sometimes when I'm brushing, my gums bleed a bit. Could these things be connected somehow, or is it something I should be worried about?

You may be experiencing symptoms of acid reflux, which can cause a sensation of spiciness or burning in the throat or chest after eating spicy foods. I recommend trying over-the-counter antacids like Tums or Rolaids to help with the symptoms. Additionally, for the bleeding gums, you may benefit from using a soft-bristled toothbrush and a gentle toothpaste, as well as incorporating a mouthwash containing chlorhexidine gluconate to help reduce inflammation and bleeding. If the symptoms persist, it would be best to consult with a dentist or a gastroenterologist for further evaluation and management.

I've been dealing with this weird stomach pain that kinda comes and goes since yesterday. It's like it'll hurt for a bit, stop, and then start again later. I already tried taking Pudhin Hara twice, but honestly, it didn't seem to help. What could be going on, and should I try something else or see a doctor?

Since the pain has been persisting for a day or more, its important to keep track of your symptoms. If the pain continues or is accompanied by other troubling symptoms (like nausea, vomiting, or fever), its best to see a healthcare provider for a proper diagnosis. They can help identify the cause of your stomach pain and recommend the appropriate treatment.
