I've been struggling with heartburn and was told it's due to acid reflux or GERD. What can I do to treat this issue? How can I get rid of it? I'm really looking for some advice.

View allI've been experiencing this sharp stabbing pain under my right rib for about a week now. It really hurts when I move, laugh, or take deep breaths. The only thing that somewhat helps is Advil, but the pain is still there, just less intense. I've tried waiting it out, but it doesn't seem to go away, and I can't lay down on either side because it hurts. I'm really not sure what's going on, and I'm a bit worried. Any ideas on what this could be?

I recently found out that I have grade 2 fatty liver, and it's really worrying me. I'm someone who doesn't drink alcohol at all, so I'm confused about how this happened. Is there a way to reverse this condition, and what steps should I take to do so?
Grade 2 fatty liver can be reversible with lifestyle changes. You should focus on a healthy diet, regular exercise, and weight loss if needed. Avoiding alcohol is important. You can also consider medications like Ursodeoxycholic acid to help improve liver function. It is important to follow up with your doctor for monitoring and guidance.

I'm getting this weird sensation like something's stuck in my throat. It's odd because I haven't eaten anything that could actually get stuck. Could this be related to GERD or might it be something different? Any ideas on what's going on?
It is possible that you are experiencing symptoms of GERD (Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease) which can sometimes cause a feeling of something stuck in the throat. To help alleviate this sensation, you can try taking over-the-counter antacids such as Tums (calcium carbonate) or Maalox (aluminum hydroxidemagnesium hydroxide) to help reduce stomach acid. Additionally, you can try using H2 blockers such as Zantac (ranitidine) or proton pump inhibitors such as Prilosec (omeprazole) to further reduce acid production. Make sure to follow the recommended dosage instructions on the packaging. If the sensation persists or worsens, it is advisable to consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.
