I'm trying to figure out the best timing for my dad's medication. He's been taking tablets like AB Phylline after meals and Montek BL before eating for his cold, but lately, he's been dealing with stomach bloating and some pain. Could these issues be side effects from the meds? Just want to make sure we're doing this right.

I'm really worried because my sister has been craving and eating slate pencils for about 6 months now. I'm concerned about whether this could harm her health. Is there a way we can help her reduce these cravings? How can we check if there's already been any damage? Would love to get some guidance on this.

That's called Pica,that's due to mineral deficiency,give her balanced diet and add green leafy vegetables daily, this would help and rest councelling is also needed

I've been having really frequent bowel movements lately, and the stool has a super foul smell. Its often runny, and I keep feeling bloated because of all the gas. What could be going on here? Should I be worried?

did u have food at an unusual place after which all the symptoms have started... if yes then it might be due to indigestion or food poisoning... I suggest you to take good amount of water and take soda or lemon juice so that you will get feel better....please also meet a physician....thank you
