I'm currently dealing with jaundice and my liver is really swollen. I'm craving some Surabhi Jain tomato ketchup. Is it safe for me to eat some, and if so, how much do you think I can have? I'm just trying to be cautious with what I consume right now.

I'm a bit concerned about something I've noticed with my chest area. On the left side, where my ribs are, it seems more distended compared to the right side, especially after I eat. It's often linked with gas or indigestion, but there's no pain, and it doesn't happen every timeit just catches my attention when it does. Sometimes, I can even hear what sounds like my rib rubbing or adjusting. Does this sound like something I should be worried about?

I'm 43 and have been dealing with a really bad smell coming from my throat for about a week now. It's so awful and it's even making my throat feel irritated. I haven't noticed any respiratory issues, but I was recently diagnosed with GERD. I'm really concerned about this foul smell and not sure what steps to take next. Can you help me understand what's going on and suggest what I should do?

-The foul smell you're experiencing could be related to your GERD, as acid reflux can sometimes cause bad breath and throat irritation. It might help to follow your doctor's advice on managing GERD, like adjusting your diet and possibly using medications.
