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 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've been having this really annoying itching around my anus, especially at night and in the evening. It almost feels like something's crawling around in there. I'm a 21-year-old guy, and I've been trying to cut back on sweets, hoping it might help. Do you know what could be causing this, and is there any medicine I should try? If you can suggest something, could you also let me know how and when to take it?
It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of pinworm infection. I recommend taking Albendazole 400mg tablet as a single dose at night before bedtime. This medication helps to treat parasitic infections like pinworms. Additionally, practicing good hygiene, such as washing hands frequently and keeping the anal area clean, can help prevent reinfection. If symptoms persist, please consult with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I'm dealing with an H. pylori infection and a peptic ulcer. The doctor advised me to take Amox 500mg, Sampraz 40, Metrogyl 400mg, and Claribid 500mg for 15 days. Is this enough to treat the H. pylori? Lately, I've also been experiencing stomach pain. Could you recommend the best test to confirm if the H. pylori infection is still present?
