I've been dealing with navel displacement for a while now. It's causing me a lot of gastric heaviness and my stomach always feels bloated. Is there any way to fix this for good? Plus, I'm having trouble with not completely evacuating. What should I do?

Navel displacement can lead to gastric issues and bloating. To help with this condition, you can try taking Simethicone (Gas-X) for bloating and Gas Relief. For incomplete evacuation, you can try a stool softener like Docusate Sodium (Colace) to help with bowel movements. Additionally, incorporating fiber supplements like Metamucil can also aid in improving bowel regularity. Remember to stay hydrated and maintain a healthy diet rich in fruits and vegetables.

I just ate a mango and then realized I accidentally consumed 23 small white worms. I'm a bit worried now. Should I be concerned about any health issues from ingesting them? Is there anything specific I should do or keep an eye out for after this?

Question

I've been having these concerning symptoms lately and I'm not sure what's going on. I was sleeping and suddenly woke up feeling dizzy, short of breath, and with some gas problems that caused a prickling pain in my chest. After that, I couldn't sleep and my body feels really weak, and the dizziness hasn't gone away. I looked it up on Google and came across GERD and acid reflux, which have similar symptoms. Could you help me figure out what this might be?

Question

I had a tonsillectomy about a month back, and ever since, I've been dealing with constant acid reflux. There's this acidic liquid that seems to keep coming up into my mouth, and it's making me feel like I need to vomit. Could this be related to having my tonsils removed? What should I do about it?
