I'm really struggling with my stomach issuesgas, acidity, and constipation. I've visited numerous doctors, but nothing seems to work. All my tests like endoscopy and sonography come back normal, yet I never feel right. I maintain a simple diet and regularly do exercises like jogging, yoga, and pranayam. Despite this, the acidity rises to the upper side of my stomach, making it hard to breathe, and it keeps me up at night. It seriously makes me feel so hopeless sometimes. Can you please advise on what I should do? I dont have a lot of money to see more doctors, so Im desperate for help here.

Based on your symptoms, you may benefit from taking over-the-counter antacids like Ranitidine 150mg or Omeprazole 20mg to help with acidity and upper stomach discomfort. For constipation, you can try Duphalac Syrup as needed to improve bowel movements. It is also important to maintain a healthy diet with high fiber content and drink plenty of water throughout the day. Additionally, you may consider lifestyle modifications such as avoiding spicy and oily foods, eating smaller meals, and avoiding lying down immediately after eating. If your symptoms persist or worsen, it is important to seek medical attention.

View allI have gallstones and everyone keeps telling me I need to get my gallbladder removed through surgery. But I'm wondering can't they just take out the stones like they do with kidney stones? Why does the whole gallbladder have to go?
While kidney stones can sometimes be treated non-surgically or by breaking them up, the same approach for gallstones is less common and often not recommended. Gallstones in the gallbladder are generally removed with the gallbladder during a cholecystectomy

I'm feeling bloated throughout the day, and there's been this rumbling sound in my stomach. My stool has a really foul smell, and sometimes I even get diarrhea. This has been going on for a few weeks now. Should I be worried about this, or is there something I can do to help it?
