I've developed a swelling just below my ribs on the right side, and it's been really painful. Lately, I've also been experiencing shortness of breath, numbness in my hands, and frequent body aches. Could these symptoms be related? What could be causing all this?

View allMy mom has been experiencing a really dry throat and dry coughing whenever she lies down to sleep after meals, you know, like after lunch or dinner. It's been happening about half an hour after she lies down. She doesn't have any chest burning or gas, so I'm not sure what could be causing this. If she drinks some water, it seems to help temporarily, but then the dryness and coughing come back after a while. Could you help us figure out why this might be happening and what we can do about it?
Your mother may be experiencing symptoms of acid reflux, also known as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). The lying down position after meals can cause stomach acid to flow back up into the esophagus, leading to dry throat and coughing. To help alleviate these symptoms, I recommend she try taking an over-the-counter antacid like Tums or Rolaids after meals. Additionally, she can try elevating the head of her bed while sleeping to prevent acid reflux at night. If symptoms persist, she should consult with a doctor for further evaluation and management.

I'm dealing with some really bad burning and itching in my anus, plus there's bleeding too. It's super painful when I go to the bathroom, and I feel the burning and itching all day long. Is it possible to treat piles completely without surgery? Can I get rid of it completely with just medication? What can I do to sort this out?
Consult your doctor before adding flaxseeds to your diet, especially with kidney problems. Flaxseeds are high in oxalates, which can worsen kidney stone formation or exacerbate existing kidney issues. However, flaxseeds also have anti-inflammatory properties and omega-3 fatty acids, which may benefit kidney health. Your doctor can help determine if flaxseeds are safe for your specific kidney condition. If approved, start with a small amount (about 1 tablespoon) and monitor your body's response. Regularly follow up with your doctor to adjust your diet and treatment plan as needed.
