I'm 22 and have been dealing with gas problems for the past few days. I was admitted to the hospital for similar issues before. Today, since this morning, I've had this sharp pain in the center of my chest. It gets worse when I breathe, sit, or stand up. What could this be, and should I be worried?

It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of acid reflux or gastritis, which can cause chest pain along with gas problems. I recommend taking an antacid medication like Tums (calcium carbonate) 500mg tablets for immediate relief of gas and chest pain. You can take 2 tablets as needed, up to 4 times a day. Additionally, you can try avoiding spicy and acidic foods, eating smaller meals, and avoiding lying down right after eating to help manage your symptoms. If the pain persists or worsens, please seek medical attention.

View allI've been noticing dark blood in my stools over the past week, and I used to have some gastric problems before. I'm really worried about what's causing this. What could be going on, and what's the best care I can take for this? Can anyone help me understand this better?

I'm really worried because I wasn't diagnosed with malaria, but the doctor prescribed me Lariago and now I'm experiencing side effects like vomiting every time I burp or eat. It's been hard to eat anything for the past four days since I took Lariago. I don't have a fever anymore, but I've tried taking Rekool and Rabium for the nausea and vomiting, but they haven't really worked. Plus, I've been dealing with a lot of acidity. Could you suggest something to help with the vomiting?
You might be Allergic to lariago,stop taking that tablet, visit your doctor for alternate medicine.

I'm feeling a bit worried because last night, out of nowhere, I felt this weird vibration on the right side of my abdomen and it lasted for around 10 minutes. I also have this tingling sensation below my right rib cage, but it's not near the liver area. An ultrasound came back normal, so I'm confused about what's going on. I didn't feel any severe pain, but it was strange having my entire right side abs vibrating like something's moving inside. Could it have anything to do with the Zifi CV 200 and Zerodol sp I took for my sore throat before bed? Any insight would be appreciated.
since Ultrasonography is normal nothing much to worry. Have a gastritis tablet like pantop 30 min before food for 3 days
