I'm really worried because I've had gastritis since 1998, but these past two weeks have been different. I've been feeling this nagging burning sensation in my upper chest that spreads to my upper back and sometimes even to my arms. It gets worse when I'm lying down in bed, making it quite uncomfortable. I've tried taking some antacid tablets and they worked a bit, but the pain is still pretty intense and annoying. Could this be something more serious, or is there something else you'd recommend I do to get this under control?

View allI've been experiencing severe pain around my knee for a while now, and it's really been bothering me. I think it might be related to gas in my stomach because after it passes, the pain seems to go away. But it's strange because it takes about 45 days for it to fully pass. Is there something I can do to help relieve the gas faster or ease the knee pain in the meantime? I'm really curious about why this is happening and if it's something I should be worried about.
try eating several small meals instead of three large ones whenever you can...Avoid foods that irritate your stomach, especially those that are spicy, acidic, fried or fatty... avoid coffee,tea etc... Avoid Stress as it may make your gastritis symptoms worse...consider calming activities, such as meditation, yoga etc...sleep with head raised position and have dinner at least 2 hours before sleep..take over the counter medications with above...consult physician if symptoms persists...for knee pain take over the counter pain killers and do quadriceps strengthening exercises and Consult nearest orthopedic surgeon they will do the needfu

I've been dealing with burps and these weird gurgling sounds in my throat for the past two months. Whenever I walk, take the stairs, or lie down, there's this liquid sound in my throat too. I have this mild dry cough and sometimes feel a bit breathless. Even though I had a chest X-ray a month ago that came back normal, I still get these random vibrations in my chest. I'm not sure what's causing all of this, but it's really tiring me out. Could you help me figure out what's going on?

My mom's been dealing with a burning sensation for the past 7-8 months and the doctor thinks it's due to acidity but it hasnt gotten any better. Shes also on meds for diabetes, high blood pressure, and a 14 mm kidney stone. Heres what shes taking: Glycomet 250, Azulix, Clopivas, Rebagem, Panplus D 40, Nikoran 5, Stonex, Laregab AT LS, Olmat, and Nurokind. I'm worried because nothing seems to help with the burning. Could this mix of medications be causing it, or could it be something else? What should we do next?
