I noticed something hard right below my ribs on the right side, but it doesn't hurt. I'm a bit concerned about what it could be. Could you tell me which type of doctor I should see about this?

Question

I'm really worried about my mom. She had typhoid a week ago and was on Levolab 500 mg for those 7 days. Her fever went away after just 3 days, which is good, but she's still feeling super weak. And now she's been having trouble going to the bathroom, like she hasnt had a bowel movement in 3 days, though her urine seems normal. Is this something we should be concerned about, or is it a normal side effect after typhoid? What can we do to help with the bowel issues?

Question

I'm dealing with G6PD and my stomach's been in pain since last week. I'm thinking about taking Nexium control, but I'm not sure if it's safe for me. Could this help with the pain, or should I be cautious because of my condition?
