I've been feeling this heaviness in my chest for a few days now, and it gets more noticeable when I eat. It's not affecting my breathing or swallowing, but I also have this ticklish sensation deeper in my neck that gargling hasn't helped with. Could this be something I should worry about?

View allI've been getting these sharp, quick pains in my lower chest, kinda like a prick behind my rib near the chest area. I've gone through a whole bunch of tests like the treadmill test, ECG, coronary calcium scoring, and lots of blood tests for heart stuff. Also did an endoscopy and got tests on urine, serum, stool, and more blood work, but nothing's been pinpointed by the doctor yet. I'm on Telma 80mg after breakfast for my BP, which is 13590, and Pantocid 40mg on an empty stomach before breakfast. I've been taking these for two months, but the pain still comes and goes, though a bit less often after meals and pops up randomly through the day. Could you give me some guidance on what this might be or what I should do next?

I've been experiencing this sharp stabbing pain under my right rib for about a week now. It really hurts when I move, laugh, or take deep breaths. The only thing that somewhat helps is Advil, but the pain is still there, just less intense. I've tried waiting it out, but it doesn't seem to go away, and I can't lay down on either side because it hurts. I'm really not sure what's going on, and I'm a bit worried. Any ideas on what this could be?

I've been having this issue where I feel a strong urge to pass stool, but once I'm actually on the toilet, it just doesn't fully evacuate. It's like I can go a little, but then something seems to block it. It ends up happening in bits over the day, like 3 or 4 times. Is this something I should be worried about, like why can't I just get it all out in one go?
