I'm 70 and I've been using Kayam Churna for regular bowel movements, but its starting to give me acidity and mess with my sleep. I exercise regularly and stick to a veg diet with plenty of fiber. I've tried Cremilax for the past few days, and it seems to work well. How long can I safely continue using Cremilax?

Brown discharge during early pregnancy can be normal, but it's essential to consult your doctor.
Possible causes include:
Implantation bleeding Hormonal changes Cervical sensitivity
Given your normal 6-week ultrasound and presence of a heartbeat, it's likely not a cause for concern.
However, to confirm, schedule a follow-up appointment with your doctor for a check-up and guidance.

View allI've been having this pinching pain in one spot of my stomach for a while now, but it usually just lasts a few seconds, so I've sort of ignored it. But lately, like for the past week, it's been happening more often. There's no swelling or marks or anything like that. What could be causing this?
It sounds like you might be experiencing intermittent pain due to something like gas, indigestion, or even stress. However, if the pain has become more frequent, it could be worth getting it checked out to rule out issues like ulcers, acid reflux, or other stomach conditions. A visit to a doctor would help clarify the cause.

I've been dealing with nausea, stomach pressure, acidity, and weight loss even though I've been eating normally. Recently, after getting an upper endoscopy, they found I have antral gastritis and tested positive for H. pylori. So, I'm on Nexpro L, Gaviscon syrup, an H. pylori treatment kit, and a probiotic. It's been 8 days on these meds, with another week to go. While my symptoms have improved and I'm feeling better, I'm still dropping weight. I'm really confused and a bit worried why this is happening. Could it be because of the H. pylori infection? Once the treatment's over, will I be able to gain weight back? I used to weigh around 71 kg last year; now I'm down to 65.5 kg. I also have piles, and it's kind of freaking me out. How should I approach gaining weight again?
Kindly discuss for your concern.

I've been dealing with this left-side chest pain and I'm really worried. I went to the emergency room because of it, and while my ECG was normal, the doctor gave me some antiacid and anti-gas meds. It seemed to help a bit after a couple of days. A cardiologist later ran heart tests, which also came back normal, and he suggested the same meds. But today, the pain spiked again, and although it eased a bit after I ate and took more medicine, it's still lingering. I'm not feeling pain anywhere else, just in the left chest. I'm concerned about what could be causing this. Should I be consulting a different kind of doctor for better treatment?
Your SGOT (63) and SGPT (70) levels are slightly elevated, indicating mild liver stress. Bilirubin (1.26) is within normal range. To reduce liver enzyme levels: Consult a gastroenterologist or hepatologist for personalized guidance. Consider medications like: Silymarin (Livercare) to support liver health. Ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) to reduce liver inflammation.
