I'm experiencing these random single hiccups scattered throughout the daylike just one hiccup at a time but occurring maybe 10 or 15 times daily. They're quiet too. I've noticed them every day for the past three weeks. I know I have acid reflux and anxiety, but aside from that, I'm a healthy and active 23-year-old female. I'm really curious if having just one hiccup multiple times a day is considered persistent. Can you shed some light on this?

Single, random hiccups throughout the day arent typically classified as persistent hiccups, which usually last over 48 hours continuously. However, since theyve been ongoing daily for weeks, its worth discussing with a doctor, especially given your acid reflux and anxiety, as these could be contributing factors.

My wife has been dealing with water-like loose motions since yesterday. She tried pudin hara last night, which helped her sleep, but this morning, she's been to the loo four more times. She's been drinking Electrol to stay hydrated. Theres no pain, but should we be doing something more?
-It sounds like your wife is dealing with a mild case of diarrhea, but since she's staying hydrated with Electrol and doesn't have pain, she should hopefully recover soon. If it continues for more than 48 hours, it might be a good idea to consult a doctor

I've been having slight chest pain on both sides for about a month, along with flank pain, and now abdominal pain on both sides for 56 days. My ultrasound showed acalculous cholecystitis, pancreatitis, and a 3mm kidney stone on the right side. Endoscopy revealed gastritis too. Is there any way to treat cholecystitis without stones? I really don't want to go through surgery.
