Is it okay to keep eating soya chunks if I'm dealing with bleeding hemorrhoids? I've been having about 20g of them almost every day as my main protein source, and I'm worried it might be affecting my condition. Should I cut back or avoid them altogether?

View allI'm experiencing this burning sensation in my upper abdomen, mostly on the right side, and it's been getting pretty intense. I also feel some shortage of breath. The pain usually lasts for about 20 to 30 minutes, and it tends to calm down after I drink a lot of water and burp, but the burning feeling lingers for a bit. This has happened 2-3 times over the last few days, and I'm a bit concerned. I have a one-month-old baby who is entirely breastfed could this be a digestive issue? I'm considering trying Ayurvedic remedies, do you think that might be a good idea?
Your symptoms appear to be that of gastroenteritis. You would require an antacid to get relief from the symptoms. Avoid spicy, oily, fried, deep fried and junk food. Aim to drink 3 litres of water per day. Limit coffee, tea and carbonated drinks to just once a day

I had a USG scan that showed a 9.8 mm by 9.2 mm polyp in my gallbladder but I don't have any symptoms. How do I calculate the diameter from these measurements? I heard polyps over 10 mm might need surgery should I be concerned about this?
