I'm having this weird sensation like something's stuck in my throat, and sometimes I even feel pain that goes all the way down to my chest. It seems to get worse when I wake up in the morning, but when I gargle or have some green tea, it feels a bit better. What could be causing this? Should I be worried?

I've been dealing with a fissure for over a year now and it keeps coming back every few weeks no matter what I try. I've cut out outside food completely and seen both allopathic and ayurvedic doctors but nothing gives me a permanent solution. Is surgery really my only option at this point or are there other ways to fully heal this

if conservative therapy fails ,fistulectomy is advised.

I've been taking rabeprazole and domperidone for a year now because of my hiatal hernia, but I'm only 22. Is surgery a better option or will I have to stay on these meds forever? How long is it safe to keep taking them?

You‚Äôre young, and long-term PPI use can affect bone health, B12, and magnesium levels. If symptoms persist despite meds, consider surgery.

I've got this small echogenic foci in my gallbladder that's 2.9mm and it's sticking to the anterior wall. My doctor suggested I take Nexpro RD40 capsules, and I've been on them for over 45 days. But every time I try stopping them, I get this burning feeling in my stomach. Any ideas on what I should do?
