I've been dealing with some really uncomfortable symptoms and I'm getting kinda worried. My stomach has been bothering me a lot with gastritis, and Im burping a lot too. I feel this pain on the left side of my abdomen and this heaviness in the middle of my chest, especially when I try to sleep. There's this weird tight feeling in my throat and one side of my nose swells up. Whenever I take a deep breath, my ear kinda closes off which feels strange. When Im trying to sleep, sometimes my heart starts racing and I find it hard to breathe. My head feels heavy throughout the day which is really annoying. I havent lost any weight, Im not losing my appetite, and I dont smoke or drinkI'm vegetarian too. Does this all sound serious? Any idea what might be going on?

Ive been experiencing a burning sensation when I eat slightly spicy foods, and it feels like something is stuck in my throat whenever I swallow. What could be causing this?

I'm a 34-year-old guy dealing with these annoying anal fissures for about 5 years now, and they seem to keep coming back. It's been happening since 2011, and when they appear, the pain is just unbearable. I've been following the doctor's advice more fiber, stool softeners, using Lox 2 jelly, and taking sitz baths. They heal only to reappear like every 2-3 months, especially after episodes of very soft or hard stools. There's this fleshy part around my anus that sticks out, which I think makes things worse. A couple of months ago, I had a sigmoidoscopy, and while everything seemed normal, they did find a small fissure and small piles. The doc just said to keep on with the Lox 2 jelly and add some AnoBliss too. I'm wondering if there's a way to heal these fissures permanently without surgery. Is it alright to keep using Lox 2 jelly every time I go to the bathroom? And, are these recurring fissures something that could potentially lead to rectal or anal cancer?

for permanent cure surgery is the choice ,there is less chances it turns into cancer

I'm a bit worried because after eating spicy food, I noticed some black, sand-like stuff in my mouth. It doesn't taste good and I'm not sure what it is. I used to smoke but quit about four years ago. I'm concerned it might be something serious, like throat cancer. Is this something I should be worried about, or is it normal?

it is normal
