I accidentally swallowed some tin foil a few weeks back and I'm worried because it feels like it's still stuck. I've seen the doctors multiple times, but they're having trouble checking down my throat. What should I do now?

View allI've been dealing with a hiatus hernia for the past 2 years and have been taking a lot of antacids, but now I'm noticing side effects like burning mouth syndrome, gum irritation, and low vitamin levels. Can Ayurveda help treat hiatus hernia and reduce the gum burning? Also, I'm in Bangalore any recommendations here? Should I consider surgery for this condition?
Ayurveda can help reduce acidity but structural hernias need surgical correction. Look for centers like SDM Ayurveda or Jindal Naturecure in Bangalore.

My wife seems to be having a bad reaction every time she eats eggs. It feels like she's getting this painful, acidic sensation in her stomach. What could be causing this, and is there something we can do to help alleviate her discomfort?
It sounds like your wife might have an intolerance or sensitivity to eggs, which can cause stomach discomfort or acidity. Avoid eggs for now and give her an antacid or home remedies like cold milk or ginger tea. If the issue persists, consult a doctor to rule out other conditions.

I'm having some stomach issues and it's got me worried. A couple of weeks ago, I started experiencing anxiety, a burning sensation in my stomach, constipation, and bloating. I saw a gastroenterologist and he prescribed me Rablet D for my stomach and Prothiadan 25 for my sleep and anxiety. Thankfully, my sleep and anxiety seem better now, and the burning sensation has mostly gone, except for that warm feeling when I eat something spicy or from outside. However, I'm still concerned because my stool isn't clearing properly and I feel gassy. My endoscopy came back normal, but my stool is mainly yellow or pale yellow, and I'm worried it might be a sign of malabsorption. I eat out a lot but I don't drink much and I'm a nonsmoker. There's also this knotty feeling on the side of my stomach and some slight back aches when my bowel isn't clear. Could you advise what my next step should be?
Given your persistent gas, indigestion, and yellowish stool despite normal endoscopy results, consult your gastroenterologist about potential malabsorption issues, and consider further tests, such as stool tests for pancreatic elastase or fecal fat, breath tests for small intestine bacterial overgrowth (SIBO), or a hydrogen breath test to assess carbohydrate absorption, to determine the underlying cause and guide treatment.
