I feel indigestion and heartburn after meal. Stool is like paste. It feels like stool is not completely emptied. I have fatty liver issue grade 3. Is it due to liver problem or some gastric problem. I dont want to go for endoscopy.
Male 40Yrs, 90 kgs,185 cms. I have chronic mild gastritis and heartburn. Right now on esomeprazole 120mg and Itopride 150mg (divided dose) since 40 days. The gastritis and heartburn are under control. I am taking another medication(propranolol 40 mg and will last for atleast 4 months) due to which I have to take medicines for acidity. What is the max duration that I can be on this dosage for acidity. Any precautions that needs to be taken.
Dear Doctor,
I would like to seek your advice regarding my 80-year-old father.
In 2025, he was admitted to the same hospital with heavy breathing and discomfort in his lower chest and upper abdomen. He was diagnosed with acute gastritis, and we were told that his breathing difficulty could be related to the gastric problem.
In 2026, he was admitted again with almost identical symptoms, including heavy breathing and chest discomfort, but without pain or cramps in his chest, jaw or arm. This time, he was diagnosed with acute left ventricular failure (LVF).
We are confused as to why similar symptoms led to different diagnoses on these two occasions. He continues to experience these episodes, particularly after lunch and his afternoon sleep.
Could you please advise whether these recurring symptoms could be related to gastritis or acid reflux, or a cardiac condition ?
My stomach is filled with gas. Most of the times my stomach is flat but whenever I eat channa , potato , outside food types etc., my stomach is filled with gas which leads to bloating of my stomach. Is there any home made solution for removing this stored gas from my stomach? Please do suggest 😀
So I play with dogs cows etc while I am doing my morning walk and recently I was prescribed deworming medication and I was feeling quite an easy and had some digestion problems but now after the deworming I feel better and also while being I have observed some small worm like organisms three times very small thread like but wiggling which of stopped after the medication so my question is whether I should take deworming medication as a routine part I remember the doctor mentioning every 6 months but since I am interacting with animals everyday what is your take on the duration should I be taking it monthly is it harmful?
