Question
Hello doctor,
I have stomach pain (I went to endoscopy and had conjunctivitis, scattered superficial bleeding and reflux). I've been taking the medicine for more than 2 months but it goes away for a few days and then it comes back again. Today, my stomach is very uncomfortable, I don't have much pain, but my stomach is very uncomfortable, I can't eat, I can't eat. When I swallow it, it gets stuck in my throat. Due to the pandemic today, I can't go back to check. So the doctor asked me if my swallowing condition with nausea is abnormal? What medicine should I take, doctor? Thank you doctor.
