I'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?

-It sounds like youve undergone thorough testing, and it's good to know that nothing major has been detected. The pain you're experiencing could be related to acid reflux or muscle strain, especially since it's worse after eating. If the pain persists

I've been dealing with stomach bloating every morning and night, especially around meal times, and it's also giving me really bad backaches. It's so bad that I need extra back support just to sit. I've tried antacids and things like Pan40, Pudin Hara, and Digene, but they only help for a little while. This has been going on for over two years, and it's been getting worse in the last few months. What could be causing this, and what else can I try for more lasting relief?

I've been really constipated and my USG showed gaseous distension in the stomach are there any treatments besides medicines to get rid of the gas? Like, could surgery or something else help? It's pretty urgent and I'm not sure what to do

For gaseous distension and constipation, lifestyle changes like increasing fiber intake, hydration, and regular exercise can help. Surgery is rarely needed unless there’s a structural issue causing the gas retention.

A lymphocyte percentage of 46.6% is slightly elevated. The normal range is typically between 20-40%. Mild elevations can be caused by viral infections, stress, or fatigue. However, it's essential to consider your absolute lymphocyte count (ALC) and other blood test results. Consult your doctor to discuss the results and determine if further testing is needed. In most cases, a mildly elevated lymphocyte percentage is not a cause for concern.
