Patient's Query

Sir my mother is suffering from esophagus diverticulum from past 10 yrs. she has difficulty in swallowing food.so she drinks water during eating.when she don't get water during eating she starts coughing and vomiting.sir kindly suggest treatment for this .

Answered by Dr. Samrat Jankar

Esophageal diverticulum is like a small pouch that forms in the lining of the esophagus, making it harder for food to pass through smoothly. In fact, for treatment, we may consider options like dietary changes, such as eating softer foods, or even procedures like endoscopic therapy or surgery in more severe cases. It's important to consult with a gastroenterologist who can assess her condition and recommend the best course of action.

Sharp pain under rib cage

Male | 35

If you happen to feel a sudden acute pain just under your rib cage it might be quite a stressful condition. It may be because of various reasons. If you have wounded or knocked down that place, that might be the reason it hurts. Sometimes, gas in your stomach might be also the reason you experience this. Visit a doctor to find out the cause and proper treatment.

Male | 24

Your stomach might act up, causing a runny nose, coughing, acid reflux, and irregular bathroom bre­aks. This could be from eating too fast, stress, or ce­rtain foods. Eat slowly, avoid spicy or greasy meals, and stay calm. Drink lots of water. Fruits and ve­ggies help clean your stomach and make­ you feel bette­r.

Not drinking enough water can lead to such problems. Make sure to drink lots of water and eat foods high in fiber such as fruits and vegetables. Also, try being more active – this can help your bowels move properly. Increasing your fluid intake, consuming more dietary roughage, and keeping on the go. Remember it’s always best to seek medical advice if things don’t improve.

If someone swallowed a small rubber band by mistake will it cause any issues

Female | 24

Swallowed a tiny rubber band? No need to worry! It usually passes through your body without any issues, and you might not even notice it. However, if you experience stomach pain, nausea, or difficulty passing stool, seek medical attention immediately, as it could indicate a blockage.

Male | 23

Drinking alcohol frequently can lead to digestive issues and chest pain. These symptoms may be due to gastritis or acid reflux caused by alcohol irritating your stomach and esophagus. To help alleviate your symptoms, try to reduce or stop drinking alcohol and opt for a healthier diet with smaller meals. Drinking plenty of water can also aid digestion. If the issue persists, please seek medical advice.
