I'm a bit puzzled about something my doctor mentioned during my check-up. They said I had a "soft abdomen." What exactly does that mean? Is it something I should be worried about or follow up on?

I've been having loose motions since last night and I'm not sure what kind of medicine I should take. I've already been drinking lemon water regularly. Could you help me figure out what else might help?

You can take Redotil 100mg (rececadotril). Make sure to stay hydrated by continuing to drink plenty of fluids like lemon water.

I've recently had some lab tests done, and I'm a bit worried about the results. My LFT showed that my bilirubin is at 1.4 mgdl, SGOT is 73 UL, SGPT is 129 UL, and alkaline phosphatase is at 82 UL. Plus, my uric acid level is 6.6 mgdl. I'm a frequent drinker, but I'm trying to cut back on alcohol. What steps should I take to improve these values, and are they something I should be concerned about right now?

I've been experiencing a lot of burping and some mild headaches over the past six months. Occasionally, these symptoms seem to improve after I vomit. Is this something I should be concerned about or get checked out?

It sounds like you're dealing with frequent burping and mild headaches, which seem to improve after vomiting. This could be related to digestive issues like acid reflux or gastritis. Its best to consult a doctor for a more thorough evaluation and proper treatment.
