I'm dealing with gas and flatulence a lot, like up to 14 times a day for the last three months. My health's pretty good otherwiseall my health check-ups came back normal. I'm 44 years old, weigh 81 kg, and I'm about 5'10". However, about a month ago, I noticed a bit of blood when I was cleaning up after a bowel movement. I went to see a surgeon, and they said I have second-grade external piles. Could the flatulence be causing the piles? What kind of treatment or medicine should I be considering? I work a middle-management job that involves mostly sitting at a desk and some traveling. Right now, I'm using pilorute cream twice a day and taking 15 ml of lactulose at night. Any advice would be really helpful.

I've been dealing with acid reflux for 7 years and just found out I have a hiatal hernia after an endoscopy. Are there any non-surgical options to treat it? I'm really hoping to avoid surgery if possible.

I'm dealing with some pretty uncomfortable abdominal pain and cramps that sometimes spread to my back. I just bounced back from a stomach infection, but now it feels like this pain is sticking around. I've heard of normaxin tablets for this kind of issue. Do you think it's a good option for me, or should I go a different route? Its really making things tough for me.
