I'm experiencing this weird sensation where whenever I drink water, I feel a cold sensation in the right side of my chest. It's been happening for about a month now, along with moderate chest pain that comes and goes, and it feels like something is stuck in my throat. I'm getting a bit worried about what this could mean. Could you give me some advice on what might be going on and what I should do next?

It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms related to gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), where acid from the stomach can irritate the chest and throat. The sensation of something stuck in your throat could be due to acid reflux affecting the esophagus. I recommend consulting a healthcare provider to evaluate your symptoms and discuss possible treatments like antacids or lifestyle changes.

View allI'm experiencing something concerning when I eat. After meals, I tend to get heartburn, feel nauseous, and have gas issues. Could you tell me if it's safe to take bifilac and sodium bicarbonate capsules for this?
When you experience heartburn, vomiting, and gas problems after eating, it may indicate acid reflux or indigestion. Bifilac capsules can help in regulating your gut flora and sodium bicarbonate can help in neutralizing stomach acid. You can take Bifilac capsules (containing probiotics) one capsule twice a day after meals and Sodium Bicarbonate capsules (containing sodium bicarbonate) one capsule after meals as needed. Make sure to drink plenty of water and avoid trigger foods that worsen your symptoms.

I'm a bit concerned about my liver test results. My SGPT is showing 73, but my SGOT is within the normal range. The SGOTSGPT ratio is 0.47. Should I be worried about this? Everything else seems normal in my tests, but I'm not sure if these liver enzyme levels are problematic. Can you help me understand if this is something to be concerned about?
Get a prescription for oral antifungal medications like fluconazole or itraconazole. Consider using a combination of topical and oral antifungal medications. Maintain good hygiene, wear loose clothing, and avoid sharing personal items. Apply a topical cream like clotrimazole or miconazole, as prescribed by your doctor. Seek immediate medical attention if the infection worsens or spreads further.

I've been dealing with an anal fissure for about a month and a half now. I've been trying homeopathic medicine for the past two weeks, but I haven't noticed any improvement. Should I stick with what I'm taking or consider other treatment options? I'm starting to get worried about the lack of progress.
