I'm feeling some tightness in my throat that started about 23 weeks ago. There's no pain, and I can swallow and eat without any issues, but it constantly feels like something's stuck in there. Could this be from muscle tightness or maybe something gastric? It's been more than two weeks now, and I'm wondering what I should do next. Which type of doctor should I consult for this? Also, I live around Haralur Road and Sarjapur Road in Bangaloreany nearby doctor recommendations would be really helpful.

It is possible that the sensation of tightness in your throat could be due to muscle tightness or a gastric issue such as acid reflux. To help alleviate this symptom, you can try taking Omeprazole 20mg once daily before breakfast for 2 weeks. Additionally, you can use Gaviscon syrup 10-15ml after meals and at bedtime as needed for relief. If the symptoms persist after trying these medications, you may consult an ENT specialist (Ear, Nose, and Throat) for further evaluation

View allI'm using 10ml of this syrup at night for my fissure, as my doctor suggested for two weeks. It's been 8 days now and I feel like it's getting better. Once I hit the two-week mark, can I stop taking it all of a sudden, or do I need to cut down slowly over a few days? I'm also curious if using it for two weeks is too long. What do you recommend?

I've been dealing with some really uncomfortable symptoms and I'm getting kinda worried. My stomach has been bothering me a lot with gastritis, and Im burping a lot too. I feel this pain on the left side of my abdomen and this heaviness in the middle of my chest, especially when I try to sleep. There's this weird tight feeling in my throat and one side of my nose swells up. Whenever I take a deep breath, my ear kinda closes off which feels strange. When Im trying to sleep, sometimes my heart starts racing and I find it hard to breathe. My head feels heavy throughout the day which is really annoying. I havent lost any weight, Im not losing my appetite, and I dont smoke or drinkI'm vegetarian too. Does this all sound serious? Any idea what might be going on?
it is due to sinusitis or deviated nasal septum. take steam inhalation

I've been dealing with vomiting issues for the past 15 years where only fluids come out, not food. Even after getting fundoplication surgery based on doctor's advice, the problem hasn't gone away. It usually lasts for two days once it starts in the morning. What could be causing this and is there anything else I can try?
Gastroenterologist opinion is advised to the patient.
