Question 1

I've been having some issues with my stomach lately. Every time I eat, it feels like there's a burning sensation, kind of like acidity. It's really uncomfortable and I'm even feeling the burn in my chest and inside my neck. What do you think could be causing this, and is there anything I can do to ease the discomfort?

Accepted Answer

take tablet pantoprazole once a day. drink good amount of water. avoid spicy food

Question 2

I'm going through some digestive issues and could really use your advice. My bowel movements aren't regular, but when they are, they're pretty loose. I've been taking medication, and that seems to help with the consistency, but then I get these gas problems. Interestingly, these gas issues seem to ease up after I've had a bowel movement. I'm really trying to figure out what's going on. Could this be some side effect of the medication, or is there something else at play here?

Accepted Answer

-It sounds like you're experiencing irregular bowel movements, with loose stools when your digestion is regular and gas buildup. It's good that the medication helps with this, but the gas issue seems to clear up after using the restroom. You might want to

Question 3

I'm really concerned because I've been experiencing constant stomach irritation and this urge to go to the bathroom repeatedly, but it only results in passing a bit of mucus. This has been going on for the past two years, and I've noticed some slight weight loss over time. All my medical reports have come back normal, my hemoglobin levels are at 14, and CRP is at 1. There aren't any other issues with my body, but there's just a lot of acid in my stomach. I'm not sure what's going on, and I could really use some guidance on how to handle this. What should I do?

I've been told I have a gallstone just one, around 4.9mm. Can homeopathy actually help dissolve it, or is surgery my only option? I'm a bit worried about what to do next.

Actigall (Ursodiol) is the primary drug used to dissolve gallstones. It is a naturally-occurring bile acid. This drug has almost no side effects but can rarely lead to increases in cholesterol or diarrhea. This is in marked contrast to other drugs which have been used in the past.
