I've been having upper abdominal pain, trouble breathing and swallowing, and a sore throat for a while. Two years ago, I had a laparoscopy for appendicitis. Recently saw a gastroenterologist who mentioned lax cardia grade A reflux esophagitis but didn't explain much. What does this condition mean and how can I manage it?

It means your stomach acid is flowing back up; treat with lifestyle changes, PPIs, and avoiding late meals.

View allI'm having some gas issues lately and after I work out, I've been getting this pinpoint pain on the left side of my chest. It first happened a couple of weeks ago and again yesterday. The pain wasn't super strong, but it was there, and I also had some trouble breathing and felt a bit nauseous. What could be going on?
it might be gastritis, take tablet pantoprazole once daily for 5 days

I drank some spoiled sweet lassi a few days ago, and I've had diarrhea every day since. Now, it's also starting to really hurt when I go to the bathroom and I'm worried about what's going on. What should I do?

I've been experiencing a really concerning issue whenever I eat. I get this severe pain in my chest, close to where my heart is, right after meals. It seems to get worse when I have spicy foods. Oddly enough, if I lie down immediately, the pain goes away. What could be causing this, and should I be worried?
