I've been dealing with a pretty concerning issue of drooling in my sleep, and a friend mentioned it might be due to worms in my stomach or intestines. So I'm a bit worried and have a few questions about this. Is it really possible that worms could be causing the drooling? Also, it's quite severe for me, so how can I reduce or even completely stop this drooling problem? And if worms are the issue, what's the best way to get rid of them? Are deworming tablets a permanent solution, or should I consider an ayurvedic option?

Drooling while sleeping is usually not caused by worms in the body. It could be due to issues like nasal congestion, sleeping position, or excessive saliva production. To reduce drooling, try sleeping on your side and address any nasal blockages. For worms, de-worming tablets can be effective, but it's important to follow up with your doctor for the best treatment plan. Ayurveda can also be an option, but consult a healthcare professional before starting any alternative treatment.

View allI'm really into fitness and have been for the past few months. I used to have 5 egg whites a day, but to get more protein, I increased it to 10. I usually eat them after my workout. Lately, I've been having gastric issues and even started experiencing back pain. I heard that these problems could be connected, like maybe the back pain could be because of too much egg white consumption and the gastric issue. Is there any truth to this?
yes back pain might be because of gastritis. reduce consumption of eggs.

I'm really worried because I've been dealing with stomach pain and loose motions since yesterday. The loose motions have stopped since last night, but the stomach pain is still there, and I'm experiencing a lot of gas. I tried taking Ocid 20 and Pudin Hara, but they didn't help. I even ate some dahi, but that didn't do anything either. Could you please suggest any medicine that might help with the stomach pain and stop the excessive farting?
no problem u use

I'm 22 and have been dealing with gas problems for the past few days. I was admitted to the hospital for similar issues before. Today, since this morning, I've had this sharp pain in the center of my chest. It gets worse when I breathe, sit, or stand up. What could this be, and should I be worried?
It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of acid reflux or gastritis, which can cause chest pain along with gas problems. I recommend taking an antacid medication like Tums (calcium carbonate) 500mg tablets for immediate relief of gas and chest pain. You can take 2 tablets as needed, up to 4 times a day. Additionally, you can try avoiding spicy and acidic foods, eating smaller meals, and avoiding lying down right after eating to help manage your symptoms. If the pain persists or worsens, please seek medical attention.
