I've been dealing with these mouth ulcers on my tongue for a while now. I've tried using Clogen lozenges and some weekly antifungal meds for the past three months, but they're just not going away. I've even seen a dentist, and they couldn't find anything wrong. They clear up, but then they're back after a few days. I've also been taking Vitamin B supplements. Plus, Ive been having some digestion issueslike I constantly need to go to the bathroom to clear my bowels. Do you have any idea what might be causing this or any suggestions on what I could try next?

I recommend trying a combination of medications to address the possible underlying causes. You can try using a mouthwash containing Chlorhexidine to reduce oral bacteria and promote healing. Additionally, taking a proton pump inhibitor like Omeprazole can help with your digestion issues and reduce stomach acid, which may be contributing to the mouth ulcers. For the mouth ulcers specifically, you can also use a topical corticosteroid like Triamcinolone acetonide dental paste to reduce inflammation and promote healing. Make sure to follow the prescribed dosage for each medication.

View allI've been having chest pain every day and even though my ECG was normal and I've done HRCT, chest ultrasound, and endoscopy, everything came back normal. But the pain and even a pain in my left hand just wont go away, and its not in a fixed spot. Sometimes I get shortness of breath too. A bunch of doctors have told me it might be GERD. Could you help me figure out what's going on and how to get better?
It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of GERD (Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease). To help manage your symptoms, you can try taking a proton pump inhibitor like Esomeprazole (brand name: Nexium) 40mg once daily before breakfast for at least 4-8 weeks. Additionally, you can take antacids like Ranitidine (brand name: Zantac) 150mg twice daily before meals and at bedtime for quick relief of symptoms. It's also important to avoid trigger foods like spicy, fatty, or acidic foods, and to eat smaller, more frequent meals. If your symptoms persist, you may need further evaluation by a gastroenterologist.

I'm a teenager and I've developed piles. Should I be worried about having them at this age? Do you think I need to see a doctor or are there any home remedies that might help me get better?
Having piles (hemorrhoids) as a teenager is uncommon, but not unheard of, and it's essential to consult a doctor to rule out underlying conditions like constipation, diarrhea, or inflammatory bowel disease, and in the meantime, try home remedies like increasing fiber intake, drinking plenty of water, exercising regularly, and applying warm compresses or witch hazel to the affected area to alleviate symptoms.

I'm really worried about my recent test results. My SGPT is at 82, my SGOT is normal, but my GGT is 158, and my LDH is 458. On top of that, my triglycerides are at 178. What does this all mean, and what should I do next?
