I accidentally swallowed a piece of Orbit gum and now my throat feels a bit weird. Is this something I should be worried about? Do I need to see a doctor, or will eating something help move it down?

I'm 19 years old and recently noticed something strange - my stomach moves in a way that feels like a heartbeat. I'm not sure if it's something that has always been there, but I've only noticed it in the last couple of months. Could this be something normal or should I be worried about it?

it is not related to that

I'm wondering how long it usually takes to naturally cure piles? I changed my eating habits for a month, and I thought I'd beat it, but the pain is back again. I think I triggered it with some really spicy pani pooris. Is there something else I can try to ease the discomfort?

don't take such foood
