Is LINX surgery available in India and how does it compare to other treatments for faster recovery? I've heard it can be removed if complications arise but I'm not sure about success rates or where to find good specialists for this procedure
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Yes, LINX surgery is available in India, according to Dr. Jasmeet Singh Ahluwalia and other surgeons like Dr. Tulip Obese. It's a minimally invasive procedure to treat GERD, offering potential for faster recovery compared to more extensive surgeries like Nissen fundoplication, says VIP Surg and endoscopic treatments, according to www.atulpeters.com and IndiCure Health Tours. The LINX device can be removed if complications arise, but success rates and long-term outcomes are generally good.

I've been experiencing this upper right chest pain that happens whenever I laugh, and it really worries me. The pain just appears when I'm laughing and then disappears. Recently, I've also been burping quite a lot. Is this something I should be concerned about? What could be causing this?

I'm really concerned because my ultrasound report came back showing hepatomegaly with fatty liver grade 1 and a partially distended gallbladder. My SGPT and SGOT levels are normal, and so is my bilirubin and alkaline phosphate. I do experience light inflammation and occasional pain in my right upper abdomen. I'm worried and feeling a lot of anxiety about this. Could you please tell me what's going on and recommend any medications or treatments I should consider? I'm eager to understand more about my situation.
Your ultrasound shows a mild fatty liver (grade 1) and a partially distended gallbladder, which could be linked to diet or minor gallbladder dysfunction. Since your liver enzymes and bilirubin are normal, its not alarming. Focus on a low-fat, balanced diet and regular exercise, and consult a doctor to discuss potential medications like Ursodeoxycholic acid if needed. Don't worry; this is manageable with lifestyle changes.
