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?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
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 had fistula surgery a month ago but I'm still seeing dark maroon blood in my stool. Is this normal or should I be worried? What could be causing this?
Seeing dark maroon blood in stool after fistula surgery, even a month later, is not normal and should be evaluated by a doctor. While some bleeding is expected in the initial stages of recovery, continued bleeding can indicate a complication or a return of the fistula

I've been dealing with acidity problems for the last 5 years, and it's been really tough. I get these severe stomach aches because of it, and they only seem to go away when I take medicine like meftal spas. I'm really looking for a more permanent solution for this. What can I do?
i understand your concern...try eating several small meals instead of three large ones whenever you can...Avoid foods that irritate your stomach, especially those that are spicy, acidic, fried or fatty... avoid coffee,tea etc... Avoid stress,consider calming activities, such as meditation, yoga etc...sleep with head raised position and have dinner at least 2 hours before sleep..take over pantaprazole 40 mg twice daily before food with above for 15 days.
