I've been having this weird feeling like there's something stuck in my throat for the last couple of weeks, and now I've been dealing with chest pain too. About three days ago, the chest pain got worse, but it's kinda settled down now. I saw an ENT specialist who thinks it's Acid Reflux and suggested taking Pan D capsules and Sucrafil syrup for a week. The chest pain is better, but this throat lump feeling won't go away. I even had an Echo stress test when the pain got bad, and luckily that came back okay. The ENT said I should check in with a chest doctor too. Any ideas on how I can get rid of this throat sensation and chest pain? It's really bugging me.

View allI had jaundice about a month ago, and my bilirubin levels were at 9.02 at the highest. How long should I wait before I can safely drink alcohol again? I'm really concerned about my liver and would love to hear your advice.
-Its best to avoid alcohol for at least 3-6 months after jaundice to give your liver time to recover fully. Since your bilirubin was significantly elevated, consult your doctor to confirm liver function has normalized before drinking.

I've been dealing with some bilirubin level issues and it's got me a bit worried. So, around 40 days ago, my bilirubin was at 2.27 and my doctor put me on Udiliv 300mg for 10 days. Thankfully, all the HAV, HCV, and HBs tests came back negative. After a week of the meds, my levels dropped to 1.4, which was great. I kept taking the meds till September 8th and followed a strict diet. But when I checked again on September 18th, the bilirubin jumped back up to 2.6, even though everything else like SGOT, SGPT, protein levels were fine. Then, on October 4th, it increased again to 2.83. I'm really puzzled about what's causing this. Could you shed some light on why my bilirubin keeps rising like this?
The cause of the fluctuating bilirubin levels despite taking Udiliv 300mg and following a strict diet could be due to various reasons. It is important to consider factors such as medication adherence, underlying liver conditions, diet, lifestyle habits, and other possible causes of elevated bilirubin levels. It is good that your SGOT, SGPT, and protein levels are normal, indicating that there may not be significant liver damage. However, the rising bilirubin levels suggest ongoing liver stress or dysfunction. One possible reason for the increase in bilirubin levels could be a recurrence of the underlying liver condition that was initially treated with Udiliv. It is also important to consider other liver function tests, imaging studies, and possibly a liver biopsy to further evaluate the cause of the elevated bilirubin levels. In this case, it would be advisable to follow up with your doctor for a comprehensive evaluation and further management.

I've been diagnosed with an anal fissure and just got my report. Is surgery the only way to fix this or can it be treated with medication? I'm a bit worried about going under the knife if there are other options.
The majority of anal fissures do not require surgery. The most common treatment for an acute anal fissure consists of making one's stool more consistent with a diet high in fiber as well as utilizing over-the-counter fiber supplementation (totaling 25-35 grams of fiber/day).
