I'm having this really uncomfortable pain in my chest whenever I eat or drink, and it's been going on for a couple of days now. Could you tell me what might be causing this and suggest some ways to ease the pain?

View allI've been dealing with this regular mild chest pain that's been moving aroundsometimes it's in my upper abdomen, other times it shifts to the left or right side. I've gone through all the tests like ECG, chest X-ray, lipid profile, USG of the abdomen, thyroid checks, and even had my RBC and WBC levels looked at, and everything came out normal. The doctors said it could be gas-related and suggested PAN 40, which I've been taking, but the pain hasn't really gone away. I havent had any fever since this started happening. Could you advise on what medicine might actually help with this?
Since you have already been taking PAN 40 regularly for your mild chest pain which is suspected to be due to gas, but have not found relief, I would recommend adding another medication to help with your symptoms. You can try taking **Ranitidine (Zantac)** 150mg twice daily before meals. This medication can help further reduce the production of stomach acid and alleviate your discomfort. Make sure to follow the dosage instructions provided on the packaging. Additionally, continue to monitor your symptoms and follow up with your doctor if the pain persists or worsens.

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?
take tablet mucinac for 5 days twice a day

I'm noticing this weird sensation that feels like a lump in my throat after eating. Burping sometimes relieves it a bit, but it eventually comes back. There's no pain, but occasionally it triggers my gag reflex. What could be causing this?
