I've been feeling like there's something stuck in my throat near my collarbone for the past couple of days, and I've been dealing with some mild gastric issues too. Could these be connected somehow? Should I be worried, or is there anything I can try at home to feel better?

I'm feeling like my stomach is really full and tight, and it's hard for me to take a deep breath. Each time I try, my stomach tightens up, and my neck area feels tight too. I've noticed my stomach looks swollen. What could be going on?

If these symptoms persist or worsen, or if you have any additional concerns such as chest pain, dizziness, or difficulty swallowing, it's important to seek medical attention right away, as some conditions like GERD, gastritis, or heart-related issues require a doctor's evaluation. If this is an ongoing issue, or if you're feeling increasingly anxious about it, I would strongly recommend reaching out to a healthcare provider for a thorough evaluation.

I've been eating soap bars every day for the past three years, and I can't seem to stop. I'm kinda worried because I don't know if this is bad for my body. Is it dangerous, and what should I do about it?
