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. It's been happening for a while and it's awkward for people around me. I've been treated for GERD with medicines like Rabiym DSR, and for allergies with Monteluksut and Fex. But it still doesn't seem to be getting better. Do you know what might be causing this or how I could improve the situation?

View allI've been dealing with GERD for 20 years and take PPIs daily. Even after changing my lifestyle, I still feel food getting stuck in my throat. Some doctors recommend surgery while others say it's not needed or might not work. I'm really confused and frustrated because GERD is ruining my life. Is surgery actually a permanent solution for this? I'm ready to consider it if it can help me finally get relief.
While surgery (like laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication) can be highly effective in treating GERD, it's not always a "permanent" solution, and it's not appropriate for everyone. , it's the last treatment option after lifestyle changes and medications fail, and even then, it doesn't guarantee complete eradication of symptoms.

I've been having this really annoying itching around my anus, especially at night and in the evening. It almost feels like something's crawling around in there. I'm a 21-year-old guy, and I've been trying to cut back on sweets, hoping it might help. Do you know what could be causing this, and is there any medicine I should try? If you can suggest something, could you also let me know how and when to take it?
It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of pinworm infection. I recommend taking Albendazole 400mg tablet as a single dose at night before bedtime. This medication helps to treat parasitic infections like pinworms. Additionally, practicing good hygiene, such as washing hands frequently and keeping the anal area clean, can help prevent reinfection. If symptoms persist, please consult with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

Is it okay to keep eating soya chunks if I'm dealing with bleeding hemorrhoids? I've been having about 20g of them almost every day as my main protein source, and I'm worried it might be affecting my condition. Should I cut back or avoid them altogether?
