Question 1

Been noticing that my stool has whole chunks of watermelon, tomatoes, and carrots in it for the past couple of days. Just got over a cold and was taking Cefixine as prescribed by my doctor. This all started happening after that. It's not like they're partially digested; they're whole pieces. Should I be worried about this? Never had anything like this before. What do you think could be going on?

Question 2

My mom accidentally swallowed a small plastic stick that was on a cake. She drank some water, and it seems to have gone down her throat just fine. She's acting normal now, but I'm still a bit worried. What should we do next? Should we just wait and see, or is it better to get it checked out?

Question 3

I've been experiencing this weird sharp pain in my stomach whenever I take a deep breath in, like yawning. It's really concerning me because my stomach is also feeling super bloated and hard. I'm just wondering what could be causing this and if it's something I should be worried about?

Accepted Answer

Could be a sign of gas or indigestion. I recommend taking an antacid like Tums (calcium carbonate) 500mg tablets to help with the bloating and indigestion. You can take 2 tablets as needed, up to four times a day. Additionally, you can try Simethicone (Gas-X) 125mg chewable tablets to help relieve gas.
