Question

I've had three endoscopies and the reports show a hiatal hernia. Right now I'm on Sompraz L and don't have burning sensations, but my chest feels really heavy and uncomfortable. The cardiologist checked me for chest pain and all tests even the chest X-ray came back normal with no heart issues. Still, the chest pain won't go away. Do I need surgery for the hiatal hernia or is there another way to manage this?

Question

I'm a 25-year-old male and a bit overweight. Lately, I've noticed my stool has been narrower, sometimes even pencil-thin.

Can you give me some advice on what might be going on?

Question

I've been noticing mucus in my stool for the past few days, and it's been a bit worrying. I had a colonoscopy about ten days ago, and the results came back normal, which was a relief. I've attached the report for reference. I'm really curious about what's causing the mucus and how I should go about treating it. Could you help me understand a bit more about this?
