I've been feeling this weird globus sensation and tightness in my throat for a while now, but it doesn't hurt or make it hard to swallow. I got an endoscopy done, and there was only some erosion in the stomach's fundus; everything else looked normal. I do have mild acidity, but no heartburn or difficulty swallowing. There's nothing unusual in my throat or lymph nodes either. My mom passed away from anaplastic carcinoma of the thyroid, and that seriously worries me. What could be causing this discomfort in my throat?

I've been having these recurring stomach aches every time I try to go to the toilet, but nothing actually happens, just pain on that side. It's really frustrating because it doesn't seem to improve. Should I be worried about this, or is it something that might just clear up on its own? I've been trying to figure out what could be causing it. Any insights?
It sounds like you're experiencing frequent bowel movements and pain on one side, which could be due to a digestive issue, such as irritable bowel syndrome or an infection. It's important to consult with a doctor to identify the exact cause and get appropriate treatment.

I'm Rajesh and I've been having this abdominal pain on the left side of my belly button for about 4 years now. I did a colonoscopy and endoscopy and they told me it's IBS. But just last week, I had an ultrasound and they found a 3mm gallbladder polyp. I'm really worried about it and it's making it hard for me to focus on work. Is this something dangerous? What should I do?
A 3mm gallbladder polyp is generally not dangerous, but regular monitoring is important. No immediate treatment is typically required, but keep an eye on any changes in symptoms. Managing IBS and discussing your stress with your doctor can help improve your overall well-being.
