I've been dealing with this gas trouble in my chest for a while now, and it just doesn't seem to go away. Every time I breathe in, I feel this pain. What should I do about it?

It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of gas trouble causing chest pain. I recommend taking an antacid medication such as Tums (calcium carbonate) 500mg tablets. You can take 2 tablets as needed for relief of gas and chest pain. Additionally, simethicone-based medications like Gas-X can also help relieve gas symptoms. Make sure to avoid foods that can worsen gas such as beans, cabbage, and carbonated drinks. If the symptoms persist, consult with a doctor for further evaluation.

I'm dealing with GERD issues and sometimes it feels like my breath gets stuck. To keep an eye on things, I've started using a pulse oximeter daily to check my oxygen level. But here's the thing, I'm getting some really weird readings. It starts at 98 or 99, but then after 20 to 30 seconds, it suddenly drops to numbers like 79, 89, or even 60, before going back up to 98 or 94. These abnormal readings only last for about 3 to 4 seconds. Other than this sensation like somethings stuck, I'm generally active and dont have other major issues. Should I be concerned about these fluctuating numbers, or is this normal with a pulse oximeter? What's going on?
Spirometry and pulmonary function tests is advised to the patient.

I'm dealing with really painful hemorrhoids and it's getting hard for me to function properly. My stool is really hard and difficult to pass, and I just end up feeling so bloated if I don't have a clear stomach. It's painful whether I'm sitting or walking and I'm honestly super stressed out about it. I've been trying homeopathic medicines but they don't seem to do anything for me anymore. Can you suggest anything that might actually help? Also, things like isabgol that are supposed to act as stool softeners seem to harden it more, which is confusing. What should I do?
Take sitz bath and include fibre in your diet
