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 feeling some tightness in my mid to lower abdomen and I've noticed my acid reflux has been worse lately. Occasionally, I feel nauseous and I've had a cough that seems to be getting better now, but my bowel movements have been all over the place. What could be causing all this?
Your symptoms, including abdominal tightness, acid reflux, nausea, cough, and irregular bowel movements, suggest possible gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), or inflammatory bowel disease (IBD); consider consulting a gastroenterologist for a thorough evaluation, including upper endoscopy, colonoscopy, or imaging tests, to determine the underlying cause and develop a personalized treatment plan, which may include dietary changes, antacids, acid reducers, or medication to manage symptoms.

My mom has multiple gallstones with the biggest one at 15mm but she's scared of surgery and doesn't want her gallbladder removed She also has high sugar levels at 272 before food and a 43cm cyst The doctor gave her four medicines Ulyses 300 Qtil 500 chymoral forte and cap happi d Should we go ahead with surgery or try homeopathy or ayurveda instead
Given the large gallstone (15mm), symptoms, and high blood sugar, a cholecystectomy (gallbladder removal) is generally recommended for your mother. While homeopathy and Ayurveda can offer complementary therapies, they are not a replacement for conventional medical treatment.

I had a 5 mm polyp show up on my ultrasound 23 months ago and I'm not sure what to do next does it need surgery or can it go away on its own
A 5mm polyp found on ultrasound 23 months ago likely requires further evaluation, not necessarily surgery immediately. Whether it requires surgery or not depends on the type and location of the polyp, as well as the individual's overall health and risk factors
