I'm feeling really embarrassed because every time I eat, especially at breakfast, I get this buildup of phlegm in my throat that I need to spit out. It's been happening for a while and it's awkward for people around me. I've been treated for GERD with medicines like Rabiym DSR, and for allergies with Monteluksut and Fex. But it still doesn't seem to be getting better. Do you know what might be causing this or how I could improve the situation?

I'm wondering how I can tell if I have worms in my stomach. Sometimes it really feels like something's moving in there. What could be causing this sensation?

Feeling something moving inside your stomach could be a sign of a parasitic infection such as intestinal worms. To treat this, you can take Albendazole 400mg as a single dose. It is important to consult a doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment plan.
