I've been dealing with black and bloody stools with mucus for about 10 days now, and it's really worrying me. I also get this dull pain in the middle of my stomach after meals and usually see the blood in my stool 2 to 3 hours after eating. I'm having 3 to 4 bowel movements a day with blood and mucus, and it's exhausting. Besides that, I feel really full, weak, and tired all the time, and even breathing seems a bit harder. I've already seen a doctor who prescribed me Enteroquinol and Revkzole, but it's been four days and there's no relief. Could this be something serious? Should I consider getting a second opinion, or maybe ask for more tests?

View allI've been dealing with some really bad-smelling burps since around 5 pm on 41317, and it's embarrassing how they clear the area. Plus, my mouth has this nasty taste. My stomach feels like it's full of gas even though I'm farting. What could be causing this, and how can I get some relief?
It sounds like you may be experiencing excessive gas and foul-smelling burps. This could be due to various reasons such as indigestion, gastritis, or gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). I recommend taking an antacid like Tums (500mg) to help with the gas and indigestion. Additionally, you can try simethicone (Gas-X) 125mg to help relieve gas and bloating. Make sure to follow the recommended dosage instructions on the packaging. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

I've had gallstones for 10 months now and tried homeopathic treatment from four different doctors some gave constitutional remedies, others specific gallstone medicines. While it helped with gas and pain, my stones actually increased from 4-5 to over 10. The biggest is 13mm and the rest are around 8-10mm. Is there still hope with homeopathy, or should I consider surgery as my last option? Can Ayurvedic medicine dissolve stones larger than 10mm?
A 13 mm stone in the gallbladder is considered a medium-sized stone, posing a moderate risk of complications. While it may not always necessitate immediate surgery, it warrants careful monitoring and may require surgical intervention if symptoms develop.

I've been dealing with a hiatus hernia for the past 2 years and have been taking a lot of antacids, but now I'm noticing side effects like burning mouth syndrome, gum irritation, and low vitamin levels. Can Ayurveda help treat hiatus hernia and reduce the gum burning? Also, I'm in Bangalore any recommendations here? Should I consider surgery for this condition?
Ayurveda can help reduce acidity but structural hernias need surgical correction. Look for centers like SDM Ayurveda or Jindal Naturecure in Bangalore.
