I usually avoid eating fruits because I'm not a fan, but the other day my friend's mom insisted that I try some papaya. Now, I'm dealing with a pretty bad stomachache and I feel bloated. Do you think the stomach pain is from eating the papaya? How can I get some relief and feel better soon?

I've been diagnosed with Laryngopharyngeal Reflux and I'm currently taking the prescribed medication. I'm a bit confused and worried because I was diagnosed just by the doctor looking into my throat. Is that normal for an LPR diagnosis? My symptoms include frequent coughing, a lot of saliva, and irritation in my throat. I'm particularly concerned about the redness in my throat. Is that a common symptom of LPR? How long does it usually take for my throat to heal from this condition? The doctor advised me to take RABESEC D SR once daily for 20 days, but I'm still feeling anxious about all this. Also, is it okay to take Gaviscon Peppermint? I'd really appreciate any advice as I'm quite concerned about my health.

That could be GERD avoid late night eating and consume bland diet and maintain healthy lifestyle.

I've been feeling this burning sensation in my stomach along with constant burping, and it's making me really uncomfortable. It also feels like there's this gurgling in my chest and throat. When I drink water, I notice a sort of gurgle as it reaches my stomach, almost like there's bubbling happening inside. Could this be something serious, or maybe just indigestion?

I had surgery for piles a while ago and have been using laxatives for about 9-10 months to help with recovery. Now I can't seem to pass stool without them. How do I know if I've become dependent on laxatives and what can I do to fix this?

Long-term laxative use may cause dependence; gradually taper under medical supervision and increase fiber and hydration.
