I'm experiencing some really uncomfortable symptoms like acidity and my abdomen feels bloated. I've also got a lot of excess gas and loose stools. Plus, every time I drink water, I need to urinate immediately, though the urine looks normal and there's no burning sensation. Does this sound like something I should be worried about? What's going on with me?

Avoid problem foods. If certain foods make your signs and symptoms worse, don't eat them. These may include alcohol, chocolate, caffeinated beverages such as coffee and sodas, medications that contain caffeine, dairy products, and sugar-free sweeteners such as sorbitol or mannitol.
If gas is a problem for you, foods that might make symptoms worse include beans, cabbage, cauliflower and broccoli. Fatty foods also may be a problem for some people. Chewing gum or drinking through a straw can lead to swallowing air, causing more gas.

View allI'm struggling with IBS for the past five years. I've tried everything and gone through almost all the tests, but nothing seems to help. I'm curious to know if Ayurveda offers a permanent cure for this and how long it might take. I'm open to following any diet. Living in Bangalore, my life has become unbearable with this condition, and I really need some guidance on the treatment options available. Can you help?
Ayurveda can be a beneficial complementary approach for managing IBS symptoms, and some patients have reported significant relief; in Bangalore, you can consult Ayurvedic hospitals like SDM College of Ayurveda or AyurVAID, which offer personalized treatment plans, including dietary modifications, herbal supplements, and Panchakarma therapies, with treatment duration varying from 3-6 months to 1-2 years, depending on individual responses and severity of symptoms.

For a couple of years now, I've been dealing with having to go to the toilet about 5 or 6 times a day. There's no stomach pain, but there's this discomfort that makes me feel better temporarily after going. There's no pain or burning when using the toilet. What might this be about, and could you suggest some solutions?
Sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). I recommend trying a combination of dietary and lifestyle changes to help manage your symptoms. Increase your fiber intake through fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. Drink plenty of water and avoid trigger foods such as caffeine, alcohol, and spicy foods. Regular exercise and stress management techniques can also be helpful. Additionally, you can try over-the-counter antidiarrheal medications to help control your bowel movements. If your symptoms persist, please follow up with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I've been diagnosed with a couple of stones in my kidney and gallbladder. While the kidney stones have completely dissolved, the recent ultrasound shows that the gallstones are still in raw formation. Is there any treatment option other than removing the gallbladder? I'm currently taking Udiliv 300.
For gallstones.... U would need surgical removal of gall bladder. Udiliv is given to prevent formation of gallstones in high risk patients such as obese patients n patients who have undergone bariatric surgery.
