I have been diagnosed with a stage 2 or 3 hiatus hernia and experience symptoms like chest pain and mild heartburn. Can homeopathy help treat this condition? Also, is surgery the only option if it gets complicated? Would appreciate any doctor recommendations or advice on managing this.

I accidentally drank from a bottle that had marijuana ashes in it and took a big sip before realizing. I ended up vomiting about 20 times and even though I feel a bit better now, my stomach still hurts. Should I be concerned about swallowing ash? How might this affect my health both short and long term? I'm also really worried that some pieces might still be stuck in my throat. What potential health issues should I be aware of from this?
