I had an endoscopy done and attached the images. Can you suggest any medications to help tighten my LES? Is surgery the only option or are there other treatments I can try first? I'm really worried about this and not sure what to do next.

I'm really worried about my 16-year-old son. He's been having pain in his lower abdomen for the last couple of days, and it seems to stretch towards the left. This is the third time it's happened in the past two months. The last time, we got all the urine tests, CBC, and an ultrasound done, and they all came back normal. Our physician just gave him some regular medication, and the pain went away. I'm wondering if there's something else we should be doing or if there's a specific cause we might be missing?

I'm experiencing chest pain or some discomfort every time I eat sugar or sweets. Could this be related to a gastric issue? Which type of doctor should I see about this?

Chest discomfort after consuming sweets could be due to acid reflux or gastritis, as sugary foods can sometimes irritate the stomach lining or trigger reflux. Please consult a **gastroenterologist** for an evaluation to rule out other causes and confirm the diagnosis.
