I took Zerodol and antibiotics, now acid reflux?
You have acid reflux after you finish your medications. The antibiotics might have disturbed your stomach, playing a role in developing acid reflux. To help alleviate your symptoms, avoid spicy and acidic foods, eat smaller meals, and sit up straight after eating. You can also consider taking over-the-counter antacids. If the symptoms last, it is better to follow up with a gastroenterologist.

Why do I have itchy anus with blood, pain, and extra skin?
You might have a condition called hemorrhoids. Hemorrhoids can be responsible for such manifestations as itching, pain, and bleeding during bowel movements. The extra skin you notice around the anus is probably swollen blood vessels. To help relieve the discomfort, try increasing the fiber intake, drinking enough water, and using over-the-counter creams. If your symptoms do not subside, see a gastroenterologist for a more thorough diagnosis and treatment.

Can I Take Esomeprazole As Needed?
If you are having symptoms like heartburn, digestive laxatives, or acid reflux on and off, it is advisable to avoid esomeprazole as a self-medication. The possible reason for these symptoms is the malfunction of your stomach acid. However, talking with a gastroenterologist will enable you to arrive at the appropriate treatment alternative. Taking esomeprazole without appropriate consultation may not eliminate the actual cause of your symptoms.

Why do I feel chest congestion when sleeping?
You might be dealing with acid reflux. Reflux of stomach acid can travel upwards and reach your esophagus. Thus, you can feel the food stuck in your chest. This can happen, in particular, when lying down. First of all, you should try to sleep with your head raised up a little. Secondly, it would be a good idea not to drink and eat within the same time frame before going to sleep. If these symptoms last, then it is advisable to consult a gastroenterologist.

Why am I experiencing acid reflux after taking Zerodol?
Zerodol may have relieved the pain, but it left you with an unpleasant twist in your stomach—acid reflux, also known as heartburn. This condition occurs when stomach acid flows back into your esophagus, causing a burning sensation in your chest or throat. To manage it, try eating smaller meals, avoid spicy foods, and stay upright for a while after eating.

Causes of Low BP, Headache post Salaine Intake
You probably experienced dehydration. This means your body lacked enough water and minerals. Loose motions and vomiting can lead to fluid loss. Drinking saline solution may help replenish fluids, but it could potentially cause fever due to an allergic reaction. Dehydration might also cause low blood pressure or headaches. Consuming water and resting can alleviate dehydration symptoms.
