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.

I often experience regular gas and watery or semi-solid stools, especially when I eat spicy foods. Despite this, I stay hungry and eat on time, drink about 2 liters of water daily, avoid eating outside food, get enough sleep, have no stress, and exercise regularly. I'm 58 kg, 5'7" tall, and 40 years old. Should I be concerned about these symptoms? What might be causing them, and is there something I can do to improve my digestion?

I've noticed that whenever I eat oily foods, I tend to cough a lot, and there's quite a bit of mucus involved. Sometimes it even feels like there's some mucus stuck in my throat. Is this a normal reaction, or should I be concerned about what's going on?

That says you are allergic to oil,try to switch oil or avoid it completely, visit ENT doctor for appropriate management

I'm wondering if it's safe to take Normaxin RT for acid reflux after I've had papaya or other fruits in the morning. Here's what I did today: I had giloy juice, then Chyawanprash, then papaya, and finally took Normaxin RT, all with about a half-hour gap in between. Is this okay to do? Would love some guidance.
