Recently Answered Questions on Left side discomfort under ribs
Alimentary canal
I am experiencing following symptoms:
Excess burping with high noise
Constipation very often
Hotness of body but temperature less than 98.4
Sometimes weakness of whole body
Sweating sometimes
Unbearable warmness
These all started after a homoeopathic medicine that i took for pain below ribs which got corrected but all above symptoms started and also sometimes i feel the pain again but very mild mainly on left side. Another thing is that when i finally get rid of constipation someday then immediately there is excess gas and i start feeling pain on left side below pancreas which eases as soon as i eat something with burping. I also noticed yellow stool but rarely and mainly if i visit washroom in an odd time rather my regular one(morning just after waking up). No alcohol but yes i have stress of medical entrance exam this year.
I had shortness of breath about a month ago due to low rbc but i corrected it with polybion l and also i am lactose intolerant.

Itching in inside walls of private part
It's been a 20+ days I am getting too much itching sensation in my private part at testicles n rib or top of the penis. I thought it's a fungal infection so tried to use itchgaurd, friklyheat powder but no difference observed. When I tried to look in my private part very thoroughly I found small tiny set of 4-5 water filled bumps(it's very minute in size , hardly less than a suji rava size) in inner Walls of the penis outer skin and over the testicles. It's itching very badly some times, but it's not full day. I tried to search some blogs and found that it may be kind of "Sebaceous hyperplasia on the internal lamina of the prepuce." Need some ointment suggested for this.. I m worried to go for any dermatologist to show this. One more thing it was there in last month as well but it automatically went out and in next 15days of gap it rearrived.

Medrol usage
I have been prescribed medrol (16mg twice at night for 7 days). As I had a case of tinnitus. And the sound changes when i press my cheek area. Maybe bec of nerve issues. I actually want this tinnitus to go away so damn badly bt at d same time afraid to take medrol after reading abt ao many side effects :|.
1. I am not hypertensive.
2. I'm not diabetic.
3. Didnt check for blood sugar yet.
4. Have a history with anxiety.
Also from last week I'm having a dull ache when i press below my right bottom rib, i am afraid something to do with kidney. Its only felt when i touch that area.
So, my question is, should starting medrol under the above mentioned conditions will be alright?
And is 32mg a higher dose? And another thing does it need to be tapered or i can stop it after a week's usage? And can I go to my office(I'm a corporate trainer btw) without any hassle?
Please let me know so I can start the course asap! I'm afraid more about the side effects :(.

Is this chest pain serious?
Hello Doctors, I am suffering with chest pain (right side and ribs) and in the middle of upper abdomen that comes and goes for almost an hour since around a month. While this pain occurs, i feel very anxious and stressed. My weight is 93kgs and height is 5'6", I contacted cardiologist to get some tests done to eliminate heart related issue, cardiologist confirmed all good with heart. Got my stomach ultrasound scan too, all looked fine. Doctor's have been prescribing me betablockers and stomach ulcer / digestion related drugs, but this hasn't been helpful much. Personally, when gas gets released out of my body, i feel better. I am not sure if its GERD/Angina, About to contact stomach specialist in few days now. Can someone please help me understand why this is happening. As this is happening around since a month, also cardiologist confirmed not related to heart based on tests (ecg/treadmill run test), so wondering what could be this. Please help, i am really strssed out.

Fungal pneumonia
I may be suffering from severe fungi infection. One of the signs I have is dryness and irritation in my inner thigh. My scrotum is always itchy. Someone suggested It might be Jock itch which is a yeast infection.
I've had this condition for years now and I've often overlooked it. 2 years ago I started having other complications such as cold intolerance, dryness of skin( which I assume is due to lack of oxygen), pain around my ribs, fatigue, weight loss and exhaustion, constant headache, red eyes especially at nights, blue lips and skin. I can't withstand cold or fan, I can hardly concentrate, diarrhea, shaking chills.
I ran a few test such as urinalysis, widal test, glucose, HIV, chemical pathology, thyroid function test, complete blood count CBC, Liver, all these test showed am healthy.
One particular sign is yellowish mucus and sometimes bloody mucus when I have flu and rashes around my ears. It also seems like my immune system is really down.
Kindly advice me on what to do

Low Bone Mass? Osteoporosis? Or cancer
I am asking on behalf of a friend who refuses to see a doctor. Some of the details of the subject:
- in her early 30s. Height: 155-160cm. Weight:53-60KG
- has celiac diseases & Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
- takes a lot of pain killers during migraine & menstrual times
- last blood test shows a high amount of hormone level (i forgot if it's estrogen or progesterone)
- doesn't really take proper meals and take gluten stuffs a lot even with celiac diseases
Anyways, the story is she has been having pain in the bones (starting from the legs) for about 6 months now. And then it starts going to the ribs and sometimes she said she feels in the whole body. It happens randomly. While I believe that it could be due to her hormone imbalance and insufficient nutrients that speeds up osteoporosis or low bone density, she believes that it's bone cancer and refuses to consult professionals.
So my question is what is the situation? What are the possibilities?

Chest Xray Nodule 3.3
Recently did a tb xray test for uk pre departure screening and there was a small spot found in the right lung, however the doctor advised there is no evidence of pulmonary tb present. The doctors performed another xray with apicogram view and report provided with comments:
Single calcified pulmonary nodule in right upper zone overlying the superior border of right 2nd rib (grade 3.3)
Both hilla appear normal, mediastinum normal, cardiac size normal, both domes of diaphragm normal, CP angles are clear, soft tissues and bony cage is normal.
Hence the results they have mentioned abnormal, what kind of medication or treatment do i require and what does this abnormality suggests? I don't have any pain or any other symptoms related to chest pain or breathing problem or fever, cough except a little fatigue.
