Question

I've been diagnosed with hiatus hernia and gastritis and my doctor prescribed meds but the pain hasn't improved much in the last week. How long does it usually take for the meds to work? Also wondering about the approximate cost for laparoscopic hiatus hernia surgery in Bangalore since I might need it if this doesn't get better

Question

I've been feeling a weird tightness in my chest and throat, and it's not exactly painful, but it's definitely uncomfortable. The only time I feel some relief is when Im eating, drinking hot drinks, burping, coughing, or sneezing but it only lasts for a short time. I also smoke, and yesterday I noticed a mild sensation in my chest, though I can't tell if it's burning or not. I'm really concerned and need some expert advice to figure out what's going on with me.

Question

I'm experiencing a sharp, stabbing pain under my left rib and finding it hard to breathe. Could you help me figure out what's going on and suggest any remedy?

Question

I've noticed something odd today. Every time I went to the bathroom to poop, there was this oily substance that seemed to emerge from my anus. It's not like it's actively leaking, but when I look in the toilet, I can clearly see the oil floating on the water. It even looks about the color of olive oil. Do you have any idea why this is happening? Is it something I should be concerned about?
