I'm really concerned about my stomach; it's been gurgling quite a bit. And now I've started noticing my throat's doing the same thing when I wake up. It seems to settle a bit after I eat, but sometimes it even feels like my throat is tightening. What could be going on here?

I had pile surgery last year and it's been a year now but whenever I eat or drink water, my stomach bloats up like a balloon. Sometimes it's hard to pass gas and stools don't come out easily either. My chest also feels tight. Is this happening because of indigestion or a gas problem? Could you suggest any Ayurvedic medicine for this?
