Sometimes when I'm sleeping at night, my throat gets really dry, and in the morning, I notice a bad smell. I've also felt a bit of irritation in the middle of my chest while lying down. Plus, there's some sputum that comes up in the morning, but then it's gone for the rest of the day. What could be causing this?

I've been having some issues with my stomach after eating mangoes, and it's been giving me loose motions. I took a roko tablet, but my stomach still hurts. What should I do?

It seems like you might be experiencing digestive discomfort or a mild intolerance to mangoes, which could be causing loose motions. I recommend staying hydrated and avoiding mangoes for now. If the pain persists or worsens, it may be a good idea to consult with a healthcare provider for a more thorough evaluation.

I've been having stomach burning and gas issues, so I got an abdominal ultrasound that showed gallbladder polyps. Is there any homeopathy medicine that can help with this without needing surgery?

No. Some kinds of polyps do, but not gallbladder polyps. They are more likely to grow over time in both size and numbers. There is no way to remove them without surgery.

I've been having this pain just above my belly button for about 23 days now. I recently noticed this thick, light yellow puss lightly oozing from my belly button. I'm a bit worried about what might be causing this. Could you advise me on what type of doctor I should see for this issue?
