How can I clear my bowels every morning?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Drinking plenty of water and staying hydrated is a great way to regulate digestion. People who support a water flush for colon cleansing recommend drinking six to eight glasses of lukewarm water per day. Also try eating plenty of foods high in fiber & water content. This includes fruits and vegetables like watermelons, tomatoes, lettuce, and celery.

View allI'm feeling like my stomach is really full and tight, and it's hard for me to take a deep breath. Each time I try, my stomach tightens up, and my neck area feels tight too. I've noticed my stomach looks swollen. What could be going on?
If these symptoms persist or worsen, or if you have any additional concerns such as chest pain, dizziness, or difficulty swallowing, it's important to seek medical attention right away, as some conditions like GERD, gastritis, or heart-related issues require a doctor's evaluation. If this is an ongoing issue, or if you're feeling increasingly anxious about it, I would strongly recommend reaching out to a healthcare provider for a thorough evaluation.

I'm experiencing this strange heaviness on the right side of my stomach, especially when I'm walking or running. It's there even when I'm sitting, but not as intense. I know I have a gastric issue with GERD, could it be related to that? I don't drink or smoke, and there's no pain, just this heavy feeling. Strangely, I have no issues on the left side. All my tests, like blood tests and the stomach ultrasound, are normal, they only found GERD with the endoscopy. I'm really stressed out thinking about what this could be. Is it a big deal? Would love some insight.
Symptoms you are experiencing are due to acid reflux from GERD. To help alleviate your symptoms, you can try taking a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) such as Omeprazole 20mg once daily before breakfast. Additionally, you can take an antacid like Tums as needed for immediate relief. It is also important to avoid trigger foods that worsen your symptoms, such as spicy or acidic foods, and to practice stress-reducing activities like deep breathing exercises or yoga. If your symptoms persist or worsen, it is advisable to follow up with your gastroenterologist for further evaluation and management.
