GERD. It has been on and off since 2008. The condition worsened last month in Jan 2013 and I could hardly swallow any solid food. It just gets stuck in the throat and feel like I am choking till I push the food down with water. Liquids and semi solid foods are ok. The doctors did Nasal Endoscopy, Normal Gastro Endoscopy, Esopheagal Manometry, Barium Swallow X-Ray and all tests came up normal. I was told the swallowing problem is primarily related to GERD and I was advised Cintapro 1 mg tablet for 1 month. So far as I take the tablet, I am able to take in selected solid foods fine, but not all foods. If I do not take this tablet for one day, the problem recurrs back. Question 1: How long will this motility disorder be related to GERD ? Question 2: Are there any side effects of taking this Cintapro 1 mg to help in motility on a long term basis (Say if I need to take this for some more time) Questionj 3: Are there any other tests that will show the proper reason for this motility disorder of the esophaegus (Apart from Esopheagal Manometry, Gastro Endoscopy, Barium Swallow X-Ray) etc.

GERD will persist but the effect can be decreased by life style modification like good brisk walk for 40 mins, avoiding fat, consuming more curd and buttermilk rather than milk and keeping a gap of 2 hrs between food and sleep. Cintpro is by and large relatively safe drug for long term use till now. We need to see the reports of existing tests before we proceed with further tests Stress has significant role in symptoms so please be relaxed. ...

Hello I have a 2 years old girl, she had a cough and a runny nose for 3 days now. I was giving her a cough syrup and vibrocil nasal drops. The doctor checked her today and said that she have ear infection and through infection, her voice is very weak ! You can hardly hear her. He prescribed an antibiotic for 7 days. I never gave her any. But he said since she has ear infection you must give her. Any recommendation ?

If your doctor feels that there is an ear infection then he is right in prescribing antibiotics. Continue with saline nasal drops 2 hourly and start the antibiotics. If there is Otitis media( infection in the middle ear) she must be promptly treated. Recurrent Otitis media can lead to hearing loss. ...

Dear Sir, My mother is 80 years old, she has bronchovascular, had oral & nasal hemorrhage, earlier 15years back, again 10 days back for 3-4 days, both in bad winter season. My query is, what medication and precaution should be taken further on? Thanks

It need supportive treatment in form of cough suppressant as and when required and antibiotics only if associated with purulent sputum and fever. She needs to take special care of winters to avoid episodes of cough and cold. if such episodes of haemorrhage occurs repeatedly you should consult your physician. Regards Dr Raj ...
