I'm really struggling with some severe issues related to eating, swallowing, and drinking. Every time I swallow anything, it feels like it hits a mass underneath my bra line, and this causes a lot of back pain and discomfort. I had my gallbladder removed four years ago, and I also have a hemangioma growing outside my liver. I'm really worried about these symptoms and looking for some advice on what might be going on. Could this be related to my past surgeries or the hemangioma? What should I do?

To help with swallowing and discomfort, you can try taking a proton pump inhibitor like Omeprazole (20mg) once a day before breakfast to reduce stomach acid and alleviate any reflux symptoms. Additionally, you can take Simethicone (80mg) after meals to help with gas and bloating. It is important to stay hydrated, so make sure to drink plenty of water throughout the day. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please consult with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

View allI'm a female and have been struggling with this issue for about three years now. Every time I masturbate at night, I wake up the next morning with really intense stomach pain that lasts for around four days. During those days, the pain is so bad that I can't even eat because it makes the pain worse. I've noticed this only happens after I masturbate; otherwise, I'm totally normal. I've gone to several gynecologists, but none have been able to help. I'm really desperate to find a solution to this. What could be causing these severe stomach pains after masturbation, and how can I get relief?
Masturbation can sometimes trigger or worsen these cramps in some individuals. To help alleviate the stomach pain after masturbation, you can try taking over-the-counter pain relievers. Additionally, applying a heating pad to your lower abdomen may also provide some relief. Make sure to stay hydrated and get plenty of rest during this time. If the pain persists or worsens, please consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

I've been having some issues with stomach and stool cleaning for about a week now. I went to the hospital and the doctor recommended a syrup called Gudlax Plus. Do you think this syrup is the right choice for me, and when would be the best time to take it?
Gudlax Plus syrup, containing a combination of liquid paraffin, methylpolysiloxane, and magnesium hydroxide, is commonly used to treat constipation and promote bowel regularity; take 1-2 tablespoons of Gudlax Plus syrup at bedtime or as directed by your doctor, with a full glass of water, to help soften and clear stool, and ensure adequate hydration to facilitate its effectiveness.
