It can be because of lack of fibre in diet and some intestinal conditions like irritable bowel syndrome. Try to include high fiber foods such as Pears, strawberries, apple, oat meal, brown rice, banana, broccoli, green leafy vegetables (kale, spinach), avocado, carrots, tomato, beans and sweet potato in diet and take plenty of fluids.If issue still persist then consult a doctor.

I'm having this weird feeling of uneasiness in my chest, but it's only when I'm trying to sleep at night, during the day it's not there at all. When it happens, I usually just get up, drink some water, and I end up belching a lot, and then after a while, I can go back to sleep like normal. I've been keeping an eye on my SpO2 at home and its around 97-98 every time I check it. Also, I went to a general physician yesterday, May 18, and they said my SpO2 is good too. I don't have any other symptoms, especially those related to Covid. My doctor gave me antibiotics to be on the safer side along with some vitamins for three days. I'm just wondering if there's anything else I should be looking into, like, should I get a CT scan of my lungs or anything like that given my situation?

At present CT is not required . Tab augmentin duo 625mg ,orally ,thrice daily for 5 days advised to the patient.Also syrup salbutamol 10ml thrice daily for 7 days is advised to the patient.Steam inhalation is also advised twice

I accidentally took some medicine meant for acidity issues, but I realized afterward that it expired about three years ago. Should I be worried about any side effects or problems because of this?

Microfacture Surgery and Height Increase* 1. *Microfacture surgery*: This procedure is typically used to repair cartilage defects, not to increase height. 2. *Shin bone (tibia) lengthening*: This is a separate surgical procedure, often performed using external fixation devices or internal lengthening nails. 3. *Height increase*: The amount of height increase achievable through surgery varies depending on individual factors, such as bone health, age, and overall health. *Timeline for 1 cm Height Increase* The timeline for a 1 cm height increase through surgery can vary significantly. Here are some general guidelines: 1. *Pre-surgical preparation*: 1-3 months 2. *Surgery and initial recovery*: 2-6 months 3. *Lengthening process*: 2-6 months (depending on the method used) 4. *Consolidation and rehabilitation*: 6-12 months Please note that these timeframes are approximate and can vary depending on individual circumstances.

I've noticed that after just a couple of drinks, my eyes get really red, I get a headache, feel nauseous, and my stomach feels extremely tight and full. I'm also having trouble breathing, and my heartbeat gets really fast. This has been happening for about a month, even though I stopped drinking alcohol. I've tried to have a drink a couple of times since then, but the same problem occurs. This never happened before, and I've been drinking for years. I got a body check-up two months ago, and everything was normal. What could be going on with me, and should I be concerned?

avoid taking alcohol
