I've had issues with acidity ever since I was 14, and now I'm 22. It gets really bad during my periods and a week before they start. The acidity is so severe I can't even stomach plain rice, and it causes my stomach to bloat. Plus, I get these headaches that make it hard to focus on anything. Could you please advise on what to do about this?

A movable, wobbly lump on the lower left side of your rib cage could be a lipoma (benign fatty tumor), a sebaceous cyst, or a hernia. Less commonly, it could be a sign of a more serious condition, such as a splenic tumor or cyst. Consult a primary care physician or a general surgeon for a proper evaluation and diagnosis.

View allI've been feeling like there's something stuck in my throat for about 45 days now, almost like phlegm, but its not food. Its really annoying and I keep burping on purpose to try and get rid of this feeling. I Googled my symptoms and found something called globus pharyngis. I went to see another doctor and they gave me an acid reflux gel syrup, but it hasnt helped at all. I'm kind of worried and not sure what to do next. Could you offer some advice or share your thoughts on what might be going on?

I've been having really bad pain when passing stool for the past 3 weeks - it's gotten so bad I can't even go to work. A doctor back home recommended surgery but I'm not sure what to do. Are there other treatment options I could try first or should I go ahead with the surgery?
It sounds like you're dealing with significant pain while passing stool, and it's impacting your ability to work. Given the doctor's recommendation for surgery, it's wise to explore all options, but it's also crucial to get a second opinion. You could start with conservative treatments for painful bowel movements, such as dietary changes, over-the-counter medications, and warm baths. If these don't provide relief, discuss with your doctor if other options like prescription medications or physical therapy might be appropriate before considering surgery.
