I've been dealing with something odd for the last couple of weeks. After eating, especially when I've had a big meal, my temperature goes up to around 99F and my pulse shoots up to 100bps, making me feel really uncomfortable. Sometimes, I also get these random pains in my abdomen, mostly on the right side, both upper and lower. The fever and pulse eventually settle down to normal after a few hours, but medications like paracetamol or ibuprofen dont seem to help at all. Any idea what's going on with me?

Based on your symptoms of elevated temperature, increased pulse rate, and abdominal pain after meals, it is possible that you may be experiencing symptoms of gastritis or an underlying gastrointestinal issue. I recommend you to try taking a proton pump inhibitor like Omeprazole 20mg once daily before breakfast for a few weeks to see if it helps with your symptoms. Additionally, you can take an antispasmodic medication like Dicyclomine 10-20mg three times a day before meals to help with the abdominal pain. It is important to also avoid heavy meals, spicy foods, and caffeine which can exacerbate gastritis symptoms. If your symptoms persist or worsen, it is advisable to consult a gastroenterologist for further evaluation and management.

I just swallowed a plum seed by mistake about an hour ago. It didn't cause me to choke, and I'm not in any pain at the moment. Should I be worried about this, or is there something I should be doing to make sure I'm okay?

Accidentally swallowing a medium sized plum seed should not cause any harm as long as you are not experiencing any pain or discomfort. However, it is important to monitor for any signs of abdominal pain, difficulty breathing, or choking sensation. To help pass the seed through your digestive system smoothly, you can drink plenty of water to aid in digestion. If you experience any unusual symptoms or discomfort, please seek medical attention immediately.
