What Is The Redness In My Stomach?
Just had an endoscopy done this morning, went well. The doctor informed my parents, though, that when he saw my lower part, which is where my stomach is, he saw some redness there. What do you think that is? Could it be anything serious? Also, right after I left, I didn't feel pain in my throat, until a few hours later, (which is now) I'm starting to feel pain when I swallow. Anything wrong with that? Thanks.

Hello
Thank you for trusting HCM
Dear usually mucosa in the stomach is slight pinkish red , if your suffering from erosion or Peptic ulcers may appear as red leisons.
post endoscopy after local lignocaine effect is gone then you develop stomach dyscomfort.
It is normal phenomenon,but few people may develop pharyngitis after endoscopy may be due to trauma or acid reflux.
use tab.pantaprazole before breakfast for one week . Syrp.sucral 2tsp thrice a day for one week. use salt water gargling if symptoms not improved please consult your doctor he will examine and treat you accordingly.
Take care
