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'm having a bit of an issue thats been puzzling me and I was hoping you could help. When I try to take a deep breath in the afternoon or evening after I've eaten, I can't seem to complete it. It's like my stomach starts to swell when I inhale deeply, and I have to stop halfway through. This doesn't seem to happen when my stomach is empty or only partially filled. Do you think I'm breathing the wrong way, or is there something else going on that I should be concerned about?

Ecg and x-ray chest is advised to the patient.

I'm experiencing frequent loose stools, and it seems like my body is just getting rid of everything I eat. Should I be worried about this?

Frequent passing of loose stools can be a sign of diarrhea. You can try taking **Electral** or **ORS** solution to prevent dehydration. Additionally, you can take **Imodium** to help control the frequency of bowel movements. If the symptoms persist, it's important to consult a doctor for further evaluation and management.

I'm having black stools and I'm worried it might be because of some damage to my rectum from anal sex. Should I be concerned enough to see a doctor about this? It's a little embarrassing to talk about.
