I've been having ongoing stomach pain that isn't getting any better even after taking CYCLOPAM. I'm 68 years old and not sure what to do now. Any advice?

I understand your concern. Persistent stomach pain despite taking Cyclopam could indicate a more serious underlying issue such as gastritis, ulcer, or other gastrointestinal problems. It's important to seek medical attention immediately, preferably with a visit to your healthcare provider or an emergency department, to properly diagnose and treat the cause of your discomfort.

View allI'm really worried because my histopathological report for a tuberculosis ultrasound-guided biopsy came back negative, but my CT scan shows I have enlarged lymph nodes and tuberculosis. I've been on anti-tuberculosis treatment for over three months, but I'm not seeing any improvement. My abdominal pain is getting worse, especially in the upper abdomen. Could it be something else? The biopsy was negative for cancer, and Buscopan injections don't relieve the pain at all. Only Tramadol helps. What could be causing such severe pain, and are there any tests that could help figure this out? Someone mentioned a capsule endoscopy - could that be useful?

I'm experiencing a burning sensation after I pass stools, and it's happened twice just last week. The stool seems normal, and it's usually after I've had some spicy food. Should I be worried about this, or is it just the spicy food causing it?
Chondromalacia patella, also known as runner's knee, is a condition where the cartilage on the underside of the kneecap deteriorates and becomes soft. Unfortunately, chondromalacia patella is not permanently curable . The good news is that symptoms can be managed with treatment, and in some cases, people can experience significant relief. However, the condition can be progressive, meaning it can worsen over time if not properly managed. Given that you've been under treatment for over a year and haven't experienced the desired relief, it may be worth exploring alternative treatment options or seeking a second opinion from a specialist. In terms of adjusting your lifestyle, it's great that you're thinking proactively. Considering your history with sports, you may need to modify your activities to reduce stress on your knee joint. Low-impact exercises like cycling or swimming might be more suitable options for you.

I used to smoke but quit four months ago. Recently, I visited a pulmonologist because I was having issues with coughing and feeling like I had to take deep breaths. The doctor diagnosed me with bronchitis and GERD and gave me some medicine. However, whenever I stop taking the medicine, my symptoms come back. Now I'm hearing a water-like noise on the left side of my stomach just below my chest. What could be causing these symptoms, and should I be concerned?
