I had laparoscopic surgery a while back but still get morning nausea and a bloated stomach sometimes. I've been taking nexpro rd 40 on an empty stomach in the morning, acta pro 100 mg three times a day, folvite two tablets three times a day, and essogress l before dinner at 8 pm since March 2019. How much longer do I need to keep taking these meds?

I'm 27 and just had a test today because my stomach hasn't been feeling right. I've been having a hard time with it and it feels kind of like dysentery. What could be going on with my stomach?

At 27, experiencing persistent stomach issues and a dysentery-like feeling can be concerning. Its likely an infection or irritation in the gut. Stay hydrated, avoid heavy foods, and consult for a stool test or antibiotics if symptoms worsen. Take care!

I've been having some discomfort on the left side just below my ribs for the past two weeks. It's really tender to the touch and gets quite painful. Plus, I've been experiencing a lot of stomach bloating, especially after I eat. It even affects my breathing at times, making it short, and my heart seems to race when my stomach is bloated. Does this sound familiar, and what might be causing these symptoms?

Probable diagnosis is GERD .Patient is advised tab pan d ,orally for 14 days and syrup sucralfate 10 ml thrice daily for 7 days .
