Question 1

I'm feeling really uncomfortable after recovering from COVID. I've got this ongoing gastric issue, and I'm experiencing pain on the right side under my ribs. There's some kind of stomach disorder going on, and I also feel this lower abdomen pain in the mornings. Thankfully, it does ease up after a bowel movement, but it's concerning. What might be causing all this, and is there something specific I should be doing to feel better?

Accepted Answer

take tablet pantop and drink plentyof fluids

Question 2

I'm really worried about my mom. She's been taking cremaffin plus syrup for her constipation and piles for like three and a half months now. But lately, she's been making these odd stomach noises at night, like "doorrr doorrr," and now she's got diarrhea since yesterday. Is it safe for her to keep taking the syrup with diarrhea, or should she maybe lower the dose?

Accepted Answer

, it's recommended to stop or reduce the dose of Cremaffin Plus syrup temporarily if your mom is experiencing diarrhea, as the syrup is a laxative and may exacerbate diarrhea; instead, encourage her to stay hydrated with electrolyte-rich fluids, and consider an antidiarrheal medication like loperamide if advised by her doctor.

Question 3

I'm dealing with a lot of saliva production, especially in the mornings when I wake up. Within minutes my mouth gets full of saliva, and I have to keep spitting throughout the day to manage it. It's a bit better after I brush, but it's still an issue. What's going on here, and how can I get this under control?

Accepted Answer

Excessive saliva production, also known as hypersalivation, can have various causes such as medication side effects, GERD, infections, or neurological conditions. In your case, since the issue improves after brushing, it could be related to oral hygiene. I recommend using a mouthwash containing chlorhexidine gluconate 0.12% solution twice daily after brushing. Additionally, you can try using tablets containing atropine sulfate 0.5mg to reduce saliva production. If the problem persists, consult with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
