View allI've been having this chronic dry mouth and really bad breath, so my general physician suggested an Upper G.I Endoscopy and some other tests. Everything else like stool and urine tests came back normal, but the Endoscopy showed I've got mild antral gastritis. I went to see a gastroenterologist and took the prescribed meds for about three weeks, but sadly, there's been no improvement. Can you recommend any medicines or treatments specifically for mild antral gastritis? I'm really looking for some relief here.
Kindly continue the same medicine given by gastroenterologist for one more week if it is still not reduced kindly consult your respective gastroenterologist.

My doctors did a barium swallow x-ray and found I have esophagus spasms in the lower part, around 10 cm. They suggested dilation to clear it, but because of the narrowing, there's a risk of damage or a tear, which might need surgery. I'm not sure if I should go ahead with the procedure in my city, Ranchi, or seek treatment somewhere else. What would be the safer option given the risks?

I've been having pain on my right side for about two weeks now, especially when I lay on my left side. It's pretty uncomfortable, and I'm starting to worry. What could be causing this, and should I be concerned?
The persistent pain on your right side, exacerbated by lying on your left side, could be related to various factors, including muscle strain, gallbladder issues, kidney stones, or even a herniated disk; consider consulting a healthcare professional for a thorough evaluation, including physical examination and potentially imaging tests, to determine the underlying cause and appropriate treatment.
