I had an endoscopy a few days ago and now my chest is really hurting. Should I be concerned and go get it checked out, or is it okay to wait a bit longer?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Chest pain after an endoscopy can sometimes occur due to irritation from the procedure. However, if the pain is severe or persistent, it is important to seek medical attention to rule out any serious complications. You can take over-the-counter antacids like Tums (dosage: 2 tablets every 4-6 hours as needed) for relief in the meantime. If the pain worsens or is accompanied by other concerning symptoms, such as difficulty breathing or severe heartburn, please seek medical help immediately.

View allI'm 22 and I've been dealing with jaundice. My bilirubin level is at 2.7, and I'm worried about whether that's considered severe. My doctor suggested taking Celyne for four days. I'm wondering if that's necessary or if there are other medications I could use to help with my condition. Can you help me with this?

I'm feeling something is stuck in my neck and having a lot of gastric problems. I also experience a pins and needles sensation near the sternum area, like there's something inside. There's a headache and a lot of anxiety because of these issues. I've seen many doctors, but nothing seems to help. Im confused and dont know what to do. Some say its anxiety, others say there's nothing wrong. Googling symptoms just makes me feel more depressed. I also have pain in my forehead and back of my neck, and my fingertip pores feel really tight and hurt a bit when I close my hand. Can anyone suggest what might be happening or what I should do next?
