I've had this really stubborn cough for about 8 months now and it's sometimes so bad that I end up vomiting. I went to see a doctor and got tested for TB, but that came back negative. My X-ray did show some lower lobe subsegmental pulmonary consolidation. I was on medication for a while, and the cough got better, but as soon as I stopped, it came back. I saw another doctor who suggested it might be a gastric issue and told me to avoid spicy foods and fizzy drinks. But the cough is still here, and it's worse at night, sometimes leading to vomiting. I have to admit, Im still eating spicy foods occasionally, and I'm wondering if that's making it worse. What should I do next?

So my mom, Karthiyayani, went to your clinic on the 9th because she had this stomach pain after taking the Duvanta tablet at night. You originally prescribed Palmigas, Duvanta, Gpital, and Pan D. She didn't take the Pan D at night like you instructed, only in the morning. We're just a bit worried since your clinic isn't open on Sundays, and wanted to ask if she should keep taking these meds or not.
Karthiyayani should continue the prescribed medicines: Medicines to Continue 1. Palmigas 2. Duvanta (as directed) 3. Gpital (as directed) Next Steps 1. Monitor stomach pain and report any worsening. 2. Follow dosage instructions. 3. Schedule a follow-up appointment for Monday or earliest available time. Please confirm her condition improves or worsens. If concerns arise, contact the clinic or on-call doctor.

I'm dealing with really painful hemorrhoids and it's getting hard for me to function properly. My stool is really hard and difficult to pass, and I just end up feeling so bloated if I don't have a clear stomach. It's painful whether I'm sitting or walking and I'm honestly super stressed out about it. I've been trying homeopathic medicines but they don't seem to do anything for me anymore. Can you suggest anything that might actually help? Also, things like isabgol that are supposed to act as stool softeners seem to harden it more, which is confusing. What should I do?
