I've been having pain on my right side for about two weeks now, especially when I lay on my left side. It's pretty uncomfortable, and I'm starting to worry. What could be causing this, and should I be concerned?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
The persistent pain on your right side, exacerbated by lying on your left side, could be related to various factors, including muscle strain, gallbladder issues, kidney stones, or even a herniated disk; consider consulting a healthcare professional for a thorough evaluation, including physical examination and potentially imaging tests, to determine the underlying cause and appropriate treatment.

View allI had an endoscopy a few days ago and now my chest is really hurting. Should I be concerned and go get it checked out, or is it okay to wait a bit longer?
Chest pain after an endoscopy can sometimes occur due to irritation from the procedure. However, if the pain is severe or persistent, it is important to seek medical attention to rule out any serious complications. You can take over-the-counter antacids like Tums (dosage: 2 tablets every 4-6 hours as needed) for relief in the meantime. If the pain worsens or is accompanied by other concerning symptoms, such as difficulty breathing or severe heartburn, please seek medical help immediately.

I'm taking Pantocid DSR every morning on an empty stomach, but my chest starts burning whenever I eat something. Sometimes I even get severe pain in my chest and back because of gas, and I feel like I might vomit. Eno helps a bit, but it's not a long-term fix. What do you recommend I do?
You can start by making some diet changes like 1. Avoid oily and spicy foods. 2. Avoid foods that are known to cause the problem to you. 3. Instead of having 3 huge meals a day, have 5 smaller meals. 4. Drink one glass of water every hour or so even if you aren't thirsty. 5. Let there be at least 2 hours gap between dinner and sleep. 6. Walking for about 20 minutes everyday.
