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?

I've been dealing with GERD for 4 years and my gastroscopy showed a 40cm hiatus hernia. I constantly feel nauseous with a lump in my throat, and my stress levels are through the roof. Would surgery actually fix my GERD issues? I'm really hesitant about getting that 24hr pH metry test it sounds like it would be awful to go through. How bad is it really?

U need a proper assessment by a surgeon,, of your symptoms clinically to establish volume reflux and Gerd.. Gastro scopy has told that you hav a hiatus Hernia.. There is no need of 24 hr pH metry if you symptoms match with your gastroscopy.. What you need is esophageal manometry... A small miniature tube... 1/10 of size of endoscopy tube... Which you already hav gone through.. That wil establish whether you require surgery called Lap fundoplication and how much you will benefit from it. normally.. Of my pts who hav underwent this surgery... Those who had volume reflux did the best from surgery.

I'm dealing with constipation that's causing bleeding in that area, and it's really painful. Sometimes, it even swells up, making it uncomfortable to sit. I'm wondering how I can manage this situation at home and if there are any remedies to get rid of a skin tag or pile naturally. Any advice?
