I've been dealing with navel displacement for a while now. It's causing me a lot of gastric heaviness and my stomach always feels bloated. Is there any way to fix this for good? Plus, I'm having trouble with not completely evacuating. What should I do?

Navel displacement can lead to gastric issues and bloating. To help with this condition, you can try taking Simethicone (Gas-X) for bloating and Gas Relief. For incomplete evacuation, you can try a stool softener like Docusate Sodium (Colace) to help with bowel movements. Additionally, incorporating fiber supplements like Metamucil can also aid in improving bowel regularity. Remember to stay hydrated and maintain a healthy diet rich in fruits and vegetables.

I've been feeling a bit uneasy ever since this incident a few months back when I was eating crunchy peanut butter and it got stuck in my food pipe. I experienced chest pain for about a week after that. Though it's been three months now, I'm still feeling kind of uneasy. I sometimes notice a vibration on the lower left side of my chest and have been dealing with this back pain for a couple of weeks. Is this something I should be worried about, or could it be related to acidity? Would really appreciate any advice you might have.
Pulmonologist opinion is advised to the patient.

I'm really worried about my mom. We just got her ultrasound report and it says her liver is enlarged at 21.1 cm with increased echo texture, but there aren't any focal lesions. She has diabetes and high blood pressure too. Could this be related, or is it something different we should be concerned about? What might be causing these changes in her liver?
