View allI've been having some trouble with my digestion for a couple of months. It feels like my stool isn't getting cleared properly. After eating dinner, my stomach feels really heavy and I start forming a lot of gas. It's even starting to feel like my stomach is getting inflated. I'm a bit worried and wondering what might be causing this. Could you give me some insight?

I'm really concerned about my dad. He has a calcification in his liver that's about 6mm big. On top of that, he's been frequently getting cold and cough. He's already on medication for his heart condition and diabetes. What should we be doing about this? Is there anything specific we should watch out for or any additional treatment options we could consider?
Considering the calcification in the liver (6mm) and recurring cold and cough, consult a hepatologist or gastroenterologist for: Diagnostic Tests 1. Liver Function Tests (LFTs) 2. Ultrasound or CT scan to assess calcification size and location 3. Blood tests: Complete Blood Count (CBC), Blood Urea Nitrogen (BUN), Creatinine 4. Echocardiogram (for heart condition) 5. Pulmonary function tests (for respiratory issues) Management 1. Monitor liver function and calcification size 2. Adjust diabetes and heart medications as needed 3. Treat respiratory infections with antibiotics (if bacterial) 4. Consider antiviral medications (if viral infection suspected) 5. Lifestyle modifications: - Healthy diet - Regular exercise - Stress management - Adequate sleep Potential Concerns 1. Hepatitis B or C infection 2. Liver cancer risk 3. Metabolic syndrome 4. Pulmonary embolism risk (due to calcification)

I'm feeling this strange cold and minty sensation in my throat, and it's been going on for almost a week now. I stopped smoking because I thought that might be causing it, but it's still there. I read somewhere that it might be acid reflux, but I'm not really sure how that would happen. Could you help me figure out what's going on?
stop smoking avoid spicy foods and immediate sleep after taking food
