I'm feeling really embarrassed because every time I eat, especially at breakfast, I get this buildup of phlegm in my throat that I need to spit out.

To address this, you can consider taking medications like Ursodeoxycholic acid to support liver function and reduce liver enzyme levels. Additionally, Ibuprofen can help with inflammation and leukocyte count. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I've been dealing with shortness of breath and acidity for about a week now. I saw a doctor who suggested Ranitidine, Diclofenac, and Ciprofloxacin. The meds help, but the symptoms seem to come back pretty quickly. Should I keep taking these meds? How long should I be on them, and do you think I need to get some tests done?
