Question 1

I've been having some trouble with my breathing lately and went for a lung X-ray, which came back normal. I also had an endoscopy, and the report mentioned issues like 13rd lower oesophagitis, lax cardia, and pangastritis. It also noted mild erythema in the stomach's fundus, body, and antrum. I'm trying to understand what all this means. Is this something that might lead to cancer? And how could something going on with my stomach be causing me shortness of breath? I'd really appreciate any insight or advice you might have.

Accepted Answer

If your symptoms of shortness of breath, difficulty swallowing, or chest discomfort persist or worsen, its important to seek medical attention. A gastroenterologist may need to monitor your condition, and if necessary, perform further investigations such as a 24-hour pH study to assess acid reflux or endoscopic ultrasound to evaluate stomach issues more thoroughly. gastritis and acid reflux can contribute to your symptoms of shortness of breath, these conditions are manageable with the right medications and lifestyle changes. Addressing your stomach issues through medication and lifestyle modifications should help alleviate your symptoms over time.

Question 2

I'm dealing with this phlegm in my chest for quite a while now, even though I don't have a cough. It's super annoying, especially when I'm eating, and it's making me feel like I'm going to vomit, sometimes to the point where I end up losing all the food I just ate. What could be causing this? Should I be worried, and what can I do to get rid of it?

Accepted Answer

take tablet mucinac for twice a day for 5 days

Question 3

I've noticed what seems like blood in my stool, and it's kind of worrying me. There's no blood when I wipe, and I only see it under the stool after it's been in the toilet for a while, almost like it's coming from inside. It's bright red right around the stool, but then it changes to this orange-yellow color further out. Should I be concerned about this?

Accepted Answer

whether there is blood or not in the stool you can get stool for occult blood test.

I've been having really sticky and soft stools for a couple of days now and it feels like I'm not fully emptying my bowels. I had a colonoscopy done about 40 days ago, and everything seemed normal in the results. What could be causing the sticky stool?
