Question

My stool is hard and I've had constipation for 6 months. An ayurvedic doctor said it's 2nd degree and doesn't need surgery, but I'm looking for a permanent fix. I'm currently on ayurvedic meds but heard about kshar sutra therapy does it work permanently and what's the cost? Any advice would help

I'm trying to figure out which pantoprazole 40 mg option is better among these: Pan 40, P2i 40, Lupipan 40, Pantocalm 40, Zovanta 40, Pantocar 40, and Pantocid. Could you help me understand if there's a difference in effectiveness or any side effects I should consider?

Question

I'm dealing with some mild neck pain for about four months now, and I've noticed my SGPT and SGOT levels are high. I've checked for hepatitis and all results were negative, and a sonography indicated mild fatty liver disease. My doctor prescribed some medicine to bring down the SGPT and SGOT levels, but I'm not really sure about any specific instructions or steps I should be following. What should I do next?

Question

I've been having some chest pain right in the center of my ribs, and it seems to come and go randomly, lasting just a few minutes each time. It's pretty weird because it also comes with these burps. It's not related to my workouts since I'm usually at the gym without any issues. What could be causing this?
