I'm wondering how I can tell if I have worms in my stomach. Sometimes it really feels like something's moving in there. What could be causing this sensation?

Feeling something moving inside your stomach could be a sign of a parasitic infection such as intestinal worms. To treat this, you can take Albendazole 400mg as a single dose. It is important to consult a doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment plan.

I've been having this weird burning feeling in my stomach a couple of hours after eating, right around where it would be digesting, and there's also this mild pain just above my belly button. I'm starting to worry a bit, could it be something like an ulcer?

The stomach burning and mild pain near the belly button area, occurring 2-3 hours after eating, could be indicative of various conditions, including gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), stomach ulcers, or duodenal ulcers, but it's also possible that it's related to digestion issues, food intolerance, or irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), so it's essential to consult a gastroenterologist for a proper evaluation, diagnosis, and treatment plan.

I've been feeling really bloated and full in my stomach lately, and there's this weird pulsating sensation in my abdomen. It's been hard to pass stool normally too, I only manage very little once a day. I tried taking Pan40 antacid, but it didn't seem to help. Do you have any advice on what else I could do or take to feel better?

-ounds like you might be experiencing symptoms of indigestion, constipation, or possibly bloating related to your digestive system. Since Pan40 didn't provide relief, it might be worth trying a stool softener or a mild laxative like Dulcolax or Lactulose

I've been dealing with this issue where I'm producing way too much saliva every day, and it's been going on for years. It's like I constantly need to spit, and if I try to swallow it, I start feeling nauseous. I also get this urge to burp a lot. I work out regularly and stay away from smoking and drinking. It's really getting on my nerves having to spit all the time. Any idea what might be causing this or how to make it stop?

Excessive salivation, along with frequent burping and nausea, can be frustrating, but it's important to identify the underlying cause in order to find the right treatment. Start by considering common causes such as GERD, oral health issues, or stressanxiety. You might also want to speak to a healthcare professional, such as a gastroenterologist or ENT specialist, to help pinpoint the cause and explore appropriate treatment options.
