I've been feeling a heaviness in my chest after I eat, and it sometimes feels like food is stuck in my throat for a few hours after. It's kinda uncomfortable and I'm worried about what's causing it. Could this be something serious, or is there a simple explanation for why this is happening?

View allI've noticed that whenever I eat oily foods, I tend to cough a lot, and there's quite a bit of mucus involved. Sometimes it even feels like there's some mucus stuck in my throat. Is this a normal reaction, or should I be concerned about what's going on?
That says you are allergic to oil,try to switch oil or avoid it completely, visit ENT doctor for appropriate management

I'm a bit confused about my recent ultrasound results. Initially, they found an isoechoic lesion attached to the gallbladder, saying something about the anterior wall being 4.3mm by 2.2mm. Now, after another ultrasound, it's showing gallbladder polyps at 7.5mm. I'm not sure what this really means for my health or what kind of treatment I should be considering. Could you help clarify and advise on what steps I should take next?
An isoechoic lesion attached to the gallbladder wall could be a gallbladder polyp, which is a tissue growth that extends from the gallbladder's mucous lining.If a gallbladder polyp increases in size by 2 mm or more, or reaches 10 mm in diameter, surgical removal of the gallbladder, called cholecystectomy, may be recommended. As in this case size increases so surgery should be recommended
