I've been noticing dark blood in my stools over the past week, and I used to have some gastric problems before. I'm really worried about what's causing this. What could be going on, and what's the best care I can take for this? Can anyone help me understand this better?

View allI've been having this pain on the right side below my chest for the last two days, especially when I breathe and yawn. I've also been burping all day. This started after I was fasting on Saturday and had liquid fasting on Monday. I did take a gas tablet yesterday, but the pain is still there today when I woke up. I can't visit a hospital right now because of the lockdown and the situation outside. Do you think this could just be gas pain?

I've been dealing with acid reflux for a while now, and its been quite uncomfortable. Im feeling a bit better since I started treatment last month, but I'm worried about the long-term effects. Does having acid reflux increase my risk of cancer? Im also really curious if there's a way to permanently cure acid reflux or if its something Ill have to manage forever. Could you shed some light on this?
Acid reflux, if left untreated for a long time, can lead to complications such as Barrett's esophagus, which is a risk factor for esophageal cancer. However, with proper management and treatment, the risk of developing cancer can be minimized. There is no permanent cure for acid reflux, but it can be effectively managed with lifestyle changes and medications. Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) such as omeprazole (Prilosec) or esomeprazole (Nexium) are commonly used to reduce stomach acid production and provide relief from symptoms. It is important to follow your doctor's advice regarding the dosage and duration of treatment to control acid reflux effectively.
