I'm having a bit of a worrying situation here. I had some serious gas troubles yesterday and took a Rantac 300mg tablet last night and again this morning. The gas issue seems sorted, but now I'm feeling a sharp pain under my right ribs whenever I take a deep breath. On top of that, my neck is hurting, and the pain under my ribs gets worse when I'm sitting or lying on my right side. What could be causing this?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
It sounds like you may have irritation or inflammation in the area under your right ribs, possibly from acid reflux or a muscular issue. Since the pain worsens with breathing and movement, consider seeing a doctor to rule out any serious conditions like gallbladder or liver problems. Meanwhile, continue avoiding heavy meals, and take Rantac as prescribed.

View allI'm looking at my lab report and it's showing my SGPT level is at 136, while the normal range is between 21 and 72. My SGOT level is at 69, but the normal range should be between 17 and 59. Should I be worried about this? Also, what would be the treatment for these levels?
Elevated SGPT and SGOT levels indicate liver damage or inflammation. To address this, you can take Ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA). Additionally, you can take Silymarin to support liver function. It is important to avoid alcohol and fatty foods, and maintain a healthy lifestyle to help improve your liver health. Regular follow-up with your doctor is recommended to monitor your progress.

I've been having this weird burning feeling in my stomach a couple of hours after eating, right around where it would be digesting, and there's also this mild pain just above my belly button. I'm starting to worry a bit, could it be something like an ulcer?
The stomach burning and mild pain near the belly button area, occurring 2-3 hours after eating, could be indicative of various conditions, including gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), stomach ulcers, or duodenal ulcers, but it's also possible that it's related to digestion issues, food intolerance, or irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), so it's essential to consult a gastroenterologist for a proper evaluation, diagnosis, and treatment plan.

I've been having this weird issue for the past two months where my stomach feels like it's beating, kind of like a heartbeat. It's freaking me out a little, and I'm not sure what's causing it. Could you help me understand what's going on and what I should do about it?
That could be gastritis,take antacids and consume bland diet and more water to ease your stomach and take adequate rest
