Question 1

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?

Accepted Answer

avoid taking alcohol

Question 2

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?

Accepted Answer

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.

Question 3

I've been having this pinching pain in one spot of my stomach for a while now, but it usually just lasts a few seconds, so I've sort of ignored it. But lately, like for the past week, it's been happening more often. There's no swelling or marks or anything like that. What could be causing this?

Accepted Answer

It sounds like you might be experiencing intermittent pain due to something like gas, indigestion, or even stress. However, if the pain has become more frequent, it could be worth getting it checked out to rule out issues like ulcers, acid reflux, or other stomach conditions. A visit to a doctor would help clarify the cause.

I'm dealing with a lot of hyper acidity, and I've noticed I occasionally get palpitations. All my tests like blood work, ECG, and Echo are normal, but these palpitations have me worried. Is it possible that my acid reflux is causing these palpitations?
