I've had issues with acidity ever since I was 14, and now I'm 22. It gets really bad during my periods and a week before they start. The acidity is so severe I can't even stomach plain rice, and it causes my stomach to bloat. Plus, I get these headaches that make it hard to focus on anything. Could you please advise on what to do about this?

A movable, wobbly lump on the lower left side of your rib cage could be a lipoma (benign fatty tumor), a sebaceous cyst, or a hernia. Less commonly, it could be a sign of a more serious condition, such as a splenic tumor or cyst. Consult a primary care physician or a general surgeon for a proper evaluation and diagnosis.

I'm having some issues with my stool recently. It's been a bit sticky and somewhat loose, and I've also noticed a burning sensation when I go. I'm having to go to the bathroom 3 to 4 times a day, and this is happening even though I've cut down on spicy foods. I'm wondering if this could be related to an amoebic infection since I've been experiencing some sensation in my urine for which I'm getting treatment. Do you have any advice or thoughts on what might be going on?

I'm a bit worried. My SGPT level is 112, and I heard that's not a good sign. Can you tell me more about what this means and how I can bring it down?

Elevated SGPT levels can indicate liver damage or inflammation. To help reduce your SGPT levels, you should focus on making lifestyle changes such as maintaining a healthy weight, avoiding alcohol, and following a balanced diet low in fat and sugar. Additionally, you can consider taking Ursodeoxycholic acid to help improve liver function and reduce SGPT levels. It is important to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and monitoring.
