I'm feeling really worried because I got really dizzy and then started having Hematemesis. When I went to the hospital, they told me that my diastolic pressure is at 115. Also, I've noticed that my left rib cage is bulging more compared to the right side. Could you help me understand what might be going on?

I noticed this morning that there was pure red blood in my stool, but I didn't experience any pain. I'm really concerned about what this might mean. Is it something serious that I should be worried about?

Seeing bright red blood in your stool without pain could indicate conditions like hemorrhoids, an anal fissure, or less commonly, a more serious issue like a rectal polyp. While it may not always be serious, its important to consult a doctor to identify the cause and rule out anything significant.

I'm worried because I've been having stomach problems for the past month. Every time I eat, I quickly get this gas build-up, and it feels like I constantly need to release it. Plus, my bowel movements have increasedI'm going about 4 to 5 times a day. What could be causing this, and how should I handle it?

I've been having some discomfort on the left side just below my ribs for the past two weeks. It's really tender to the touch and gets quite painful. Plus, I've been experiencing a lot of stomach bloating, especially after I eat. It even affects my breathing at times, making it short, and my heart seems to race when my stomach is bloated. Does this sound familiar, and what might be causing these symptoms?

Probable diagnosis is GERD .Patient is advised tab pan d ,orally for 14 days and syrup sucralfate 10 ml thrice daily for 7 days .
