I've been feeling a heaviness in my chest after I eat, and it sometimes feels like food is stuck in my throat for a few hours after. It's kinda uncomfortable and I'm worried about what's causing it. Could this be something serious, or is there a simple explanation for why this is happening?

I've been having really bad gas pain and back pain lately and the USG showed multiple gallstones with the largest one being 0.44cm in my gallbladder. Is there any medicine that can dissolve these stones instead of surgery and if so how long would it take to work

Multiple gallstones detected via ultrasound can definitely cause the type of gas and back pain you're experiencing. The pain is likely due to the gallstones blocking the bile ducts, which is a condition called biliary colic. It's important to consult with a doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment, as gallstones can lead to more serious complications if left untreated.

I'm feeling a bit worried because last night, out of nowhere, I felt this weird vibration on the right side of my abdomen and it lasted for around 10 minutes. I also have this tingling sensation below my right rib cage, but it's not near the liver area. An ultrasound came back normal, so I'm confused about what's going on. I didn't feel any severe pain, but it was strange having my entire right side abs vibrating like something's moving inside. Could it have anything to do with the Zifi CV 200 and Zerodol sp I took for my sore throat before bed? Any insight would be appreciated.

since Ultrasonography is normal nothing much to worry. Have a gastritis tablet like pantop 30 min before food for 3 days

I'm really worried about my husband's recent LFT results. His SGPT is 119 and SGOT is 86, and his bilirubin total is 0.97. He used to drink alcohol but has stopped now. What could these values indicate? Should we be concerned?

These elevated values can indicate liver damage or inflammation. Since he was alcoholic but has now stopped, it's important to continue with a healthy lifestyle. I recommend he takes Ursodeoxycholic acid to support his liver function and Milk Thistle extract to promote liver health.
