Question

I've been dealing with gastric trouble for 4-5 years, but this time it's really bad. I get gas in my stomach no matter what I eat, like even if it's just papaya or any other food. Do you have any advice or solutions for this?

You are experiencing chronic gastric issues. To help alleviate your symptoms, you can try taking Omeprazole (brand name Prilosec) 20mg once daily before breakfast. Additionally, you can take Simethicone (brand name Gas-X) 125mg after meals to help relieve gas in your stomach. It is also important to avoid foods that trigger gas such as beans, cabbage, and carbonated drinks. Make sure to drink plenty of water and practice stress-reducing activities like yoga or meditation.

Question

I've been dealing with this recurring pain on the left side of my upper stomach. I'm 33 and have already done an ultrasound and a CT scan but nothing major showed up. About a year and a half ago, an endoscopy indicated esophagus grade A. I've been on medication since, but the pain still persists and sometimes moves to my back. Plus, I occasionally face gastric issues. It's really frustrating, and there's also this burning sensation and itching during bowel movements. Does anyone have any idea what's going on or what I should do next?

Question

Can I use Anovate ointment for a burning sensation in my butt during and after using the toilet? I've been really uncomfortable and I'm not sure if this is the right treatment. What do you think?

Question

I've been taking Claribid 500 for a few days now, but I've started experiencing some upper abdominal pain. It's been about three days, and I'm also finding it hard to breathe properly. Could this be a side effect of the medication? Should I be concerned, or is this something that'll go away on its own?
