I'm wondering how long it usually takes to naturally cure piles? I changed my eating habits for a month, and I thought I'd beat it, but the pain is back again. I think I triggered it with some really spicy pani pooris. Is there something else I can try to ease the discomfort?

My dad's SGPT levels came back at 125, and I'm really worried about what this means for his health. Is this something serious? Could it indicate liver damage, and if so, how can we go about treating it? I'm really anxious to know more about how we can get this under control.

To address this, it is important to identify and treat the underlying cause. I recommend consulting a doctor for further evaluation and management. In the meantime, you can consider giving him Ursodeoxycholic acid. Additionally, encourage him to follow a healthy diet, avoid alcohol, and maintain a healthy lifestyle to support liver health.

I've been dealing with antral gastritis and duodenitis for about 8 months now, and sometimes I get this weird sensation like my heart is skipping a beat. Is that something I should be worried about, or is it normal with these conditions?

Antral gastritis and duodenitis can cause discomfort and stress, which can, in turn, lead to sensations of skipped heartbeats or palpitations. This is because the vagus nerve, which runs from the brain to the abdomen, can be irritated, causing changes in heart rhythm. While these sensations can be alarming, they are often benign. However, it's important to rule out any cardiac issues, especially if the sensations are persistent or accompanied by other symptoms like chest pain or shortness of breath. Consult with your healthcare provider to ensure proper management of your gastrointestinal condition and to discuss your heart rhythm concerns.

I'm having breathing problems and it's been going on for a week now. I even went for an ECG and it came back normal. I've dealt with gastritis before and was on meds for it. Could this gastritis be causing my shortness of breath?

Yes, gastritis and other gastrointestinal issues like acid reflux can sometimes cause or contribute to shortness of breath. This happens due to the proximity of the stomach to the diaphragm, which can become irritated and lead to feelings of chest discomfort or shortness of breath. Since your ECG is normal, its less likely that your symptoms are heart-related. However, its important to manage your gastritis effectively and monitor your symptoms. If your breathing problems persist or worsen, consult your healthcare provider for further evaluation to rule out other potential causes and ensure you receive appropriate treatment.
