I've developed this habit of eating raw rice every day, even in the middle of the night sometimes. It's like I can't control it. Recently, I've been getting stomach aches and I'm noticing a lot of hair loss. Should I be worried about this? Is there anything I can do to stop these symptoms or this craving?

View allI have a 12mm gallstone and really want to avoid surgery or removing my gallbladder are there any effective ways to dissolve it naturally? I've heard mixed things about medications or home remedies but not sure what actually works for a stone this size
The advised treatment is laparoscopic cholecystectomy , which involves surgical removal of gall bladder.Since the stone size is larger surgery is recommended procedure to the patient.

My dad has been feeling nauseous and vomiting all day but his sonography and CT scan came back normal. His creatinine is 1.92 and endoscopy showed acid reflux. He has a pacemaker from 2014 and had bypass surgery in 2008. Right now his cardiologist has him on three meds for acid reflux Zofer, Rantac 300, and Pantocid. Is this the right treatment or should one of Rantac or Pantocid be stopped? Could there be a better option?
In this case, nausea and reflux may be related to kidney function or meds. Zofer (ondansetron) is okay short term. Only one PPI (Pantocid) is usually needed—consult for drug interaction review.

I'm experiencing this on-and-off burning sensation near my lower left rib. It feels just like a hot burning thing going on, especially when I'm lying down. It's so strange because when I'm busy with work or moving around, there's no pain at all, but as soon as I lie down, that hot feeling pops up near my left rib towards the back. It's been two weeks already! I'm not in pain, more like a discomfort really, as the left side aches near the lower rib with this heat thing happening. Any idea what this could be and how I could maybe get rid of it?
