I've been having this pain on the right side below my chest for the last two days, especially when I breathe and yawn. I've also been burping all day. This started after I was fasting on Saturday and had liquid fasting on Monday. I did take a gas tablet yesterday, but the pain is still there today when I woke up. I can't visit a hospital right now because of the lockdown and the situation outside. Do you think this could just be gas pain?

View allI've been monitoring my stool for the past week, and after dealing with constipation for about three days, I noticed these small round red spots on my stool. They disappeared for a bit, but now they're back, although not in large numbers. It's a little freaky for me. Last month, I had a high blood pressure issue, but it's controlled now with homeopathic meds. Could you help me understand what might be going on?
The presence of red spots in your stool could be due to various reasons, including hemorrhoids, anal fissures, or gastrointestinal bleeding. Since you have a history of high blood pressure and are currently taking Homeopathic medicines, it is important to be cautious with any additional medications. I recommend you take a stool test to check for any signs of blood in the stool. In the meantime, you can consider taking a stool softener like Docusate Sodium to help with constipation and reduce straining during bowel movements. Additionally, increasing your fiber intake and staying hydrated can also help improve your bowel movements.

I'm experiencing loose motions and joint pain, and my tongue feels tasteless. I'm also feeling drowsy and really tired. Plus, my stomach has this crampy feeling. What could be causing all of this and what should I do about it?
The discoloration and swelling on your arm after a blood test are likely due to a hematoma (blood accumulation under the skin) or bruising. This is a common and temporary reaction, but if you experience: - Increasing pain or swelling - Redness or warmth around the area - Difficulty moving your arm Seek medical attention to rule out any serious complications.

I've been dealing with constant diarrhea for the last couple of days, and even though I'm taking loperamide and using O.R.S., it hasn't stopped. Should I be worried? Is there anything else I can do to help stop it?
Persistent diarrhea despite taking loperamide and ORS warrants further attention; consider consulting a gastroenterologist or a primary care physician to rule out underlying causes like bacterial or viral infections, food poisoning, or inflammatory bowel disease; they may prescribe additional medications, such as antibiotics or anti-inflammatory agents, and recommend stool tests, blood work, or other diagnostic procedures to determine the underlying cause and develop an effective treatment plan.
