What a great question and thank you for asking! Some acid reflux can be cured. Generally during the reflux means identifying the triggers and foods that worsen reflux. Making sure you have sufficient time for food to go down your food pipe and not sleeping directly after eating or laying down, staying away from acidic, spicy or other caustic foods can help. Taking an antacid correctly can help. Generally, at 10 take some time to identify causes and limit symptoms. When in doubt, you can always speak to a nutritionist or dietitian, or integrative or functional medicine physician, and start with an elimination diet and some postural or behavioral changes to help limit reflux. Medication‘s may be indicated, and some testing may be indicated along with food allergy, testing and testing for a bacteria that may be living in the stomach. Occasionally stool testing is also helpful. And worst case scenarios or in progressive disease sometimes getting an endoscopy or a camera down your throat looking into esophagus, and your stomach can also be helpful. The goal is to prevent further acid from entering into your esophagus, causing potential cellular changes, including cancer. I strongly suggest you reached out to your primary care physician and discuss all your options so you can limit your symptoms and start feeling better! Thanks for your question!-Dr. Misra

Hi! Sorry to hear you are suffering. Often with Gastritis and Diarrhea, you may be dehydrated if these symptoms are prolonged, so I definitely recommend speaking with your Primary Care Physician (any Internal Medicine or General Practice Physician will do) as if these symptoms last longer than a week or you start to feel dizzy or are completely unable to eat or start vomiting along with these symptoms or are getting worse. The recommended diet is called a "BRAT diet", and generally consists of Bananas, Rice, Applesauce and Toast. This diet is helpful for anyone who has nausea, vomiting or diarrhea. Hope this helps answer your question!

Hi! Thank you for your question- the answer is yes and no, depending on the cause of your pain. I would suggest going to a Board Certified Podiatrist if the issue is the ankle and below. (On occasions the cause of pain with chiropractors can be mistreated and worsen the underlying issue). For other issues involving the leg, I would go to your Primary Care Physician and/or an orthopedic Physician. hope this helps!

Hi! High Blood pressure (also known as hypertension) can be due t a multitude of causes. Commonly though, diet/exercise/lifestyle and/or genetics can play a role as well as diseases of certain organs like the kidneys. High Blood Pressure also can occur secondary to other medical issues. If you have high blood pressure, it is recommended that you lower salt and carbohydrate intake and increase exercising both with resistance training and aerobic exercises (lifting weights or using resistance bands or spinning/running depending on what your body can handle) and see a physician as you may need medication to help lower your blood pressure. Speak with your physician to help pinpoint things that are within your control that you can change but also to get assistance in figuring out if other things are causing your blood pressure to be high. Hope this helps!-Dr. S. Misra of Misra Wellness

So sorry for your friend. Strokes can be different so it depends on the type of stroke and what part of the brain was affected, how advanced the stroke was, how long oxygen was depleted from that area and possible injuries or causes of the stroke. Unfortunately recovery looks different for everyone. Thanks for your question and hope this helps. Reach out to the physician caring for your friend, and if your friend agrees to share that information, that may be the best way to know what to expect. Hope your friend heals quickly and completely.

This depends on age and symptoms. For the most part, as is with almost all viruses, supportive treatment is indicated first (meaning treat the symptoms as they come). Rest is key for you AND your daughter to get through this, so take care of yourself too, mom.
