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'm really worried because my CT scan showed that I have IBD, and now I'm dealing with worms in my stomach. I can definitely feel them, and it's really uncomfortable. Should I even consider taking medicine for worms right now? I'm not currently on any medication for my IBD, so I'm not sure what to do. Any advice would be great!

I'm curious about using jeera water for digestion since I have a sensitive gut. How often should I drink it, and when is the best time during the day for it to be effective?
Jeera water can aid digestion, but for sensitive gut, start with small amounts (14 teaspoon of cumin seeds in 1 liter water) and observe tolerance; drink it 1-2 times a day, ideally after meals or before bedtime, and avoid drinking it on an empty stomach to minimize potential discomfort.

I've been dealing with a stomach ache for the past couple of days, and it's really starting to worry me. The pain only lasts a few minutes each time it hits, but it's happening multiple times a day at random intervals. It feels like something's tightening up inside my stomach and squeezing it hard for a moment. What could be causing this? Any advice would be really appreciated.
