I'm curious about something I've been feeling recently. Whenever I drink water, I can actually feel it moving down through my chest, and there's this cool sensation that accompanies it. Swallowing isn't an issue, but I wanted to know if what I'm experiencing is normal. Can you help me understand this?

I've been having this uneasy feeling on the left side of my stomach for the past four months. It's mostly a lot of gas and acidity. I just got an ultrasound done, and it says I have a fatty liver. Could you help me understand what's going on and what I should do next?

Avoid oily and fatty foods..Do regular exercise. Avoid alcohol and smoking. Consult your physician and get yourself clinically examined and relevant investigations done like liver function test, lipid profile, blood sugar and get evaluated for hypertension and diabetes mellitus.. Drink plenty of fluids and remain hydrated. Take healthy balance diet.
