I have this feeling like there's gas trapped in my throat. When I drink water, I burp for a second, but then nothing changes, and the gas is still stuck there. It's really uncomfortable, and I can't sleep or even lie down for long periods because of it. What can I do to get some relief?

It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of acid reflux or GERD. I recommend trying over-the-counter antacids like Mucaine Gel or Gelusil Syrup to help relieve the gas and discomfort in your throat. You can take 1-2 tablets as needed, up to several times a day. Additionally, you can try taking an over-the-counter medication like omeprazole (Omez) once a day before breakfast to help reduce stomach acid production and alleviate your symptoms. Make sure to avoid lying down immediately after eating and try to elevate your head while sleeping to help prevent acid reflux. If your symptoms persist, it's important to consult with a gastroenterologist for further evaluation and management.

View allI've been dealing with acidity problems for the last 5 years, and it's been really tough. I get these severe stomach aches because of it, and they only seem to go away when I take medicine like meftal spas. I'm really looking for a more permanent solution for this. What can I do?
i understand your concern...try eating several small meals instead of three large ones whenever you can...Avoid foods that irritate your stomach, especially those that are spicy, acidic, fried or fatty... avoid coffee,tea etc... Avoid stress,consider calming activities, such as meditation, yoga etc...sleep with head raised position and have dinner at least 2 hours before sleep..take over pantaprazole 40 mg twice daily before food with above for 15 days.

My wife has been dealing with severe bleeding hemorrhoids for over 3 years, and it's gotten really bad this past week with a lot of blood loss. Our baby is only 4 months old, so surgery isn't an option right now we're planning for May when our older son is on break. What can we do to stop the bleeding until then? It's happening way too often and we're really worried
To stop bleeding you can use the tablet pause mf ,one tablet twice a day for about 3-5 days.

I've been dealing with severe peritonitis, but the doctors can't figure out what's causing it. How do they usually find the root cause when it's not obvious? Also, why would a dentist recommend surgery for something like this does it connect to oral health somehow?
bacteria ,also dentist opinion is advised.
