I'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?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
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.

View allI was just diagnosed with gastroesophageal reflux disease last week and I'm dealing with this burning pain on the left side of my back around the breastbone and I'm also having shortness of breath. The doctor said it's GERD and I'm on medication, which is helping, but I'm still facing this breathing issue. Every 10 minutes or so, I feel like I need to take a deep breath or else there's this pressure and tightness in my chest. My blood tests came back normal with an HB of 13. Why do I feel like taking a deep breath every 10 minutes? Could you suggest any breathing exercises or regular exercises that might help with this?
yes go ahead

I'm struggling with IBS for the past five years. I've tried everything and gone through almost all the tests, but nothing seems to help. I'm curious to know if Ayurveda offers a permanent cure for this and how long it might take. I'm open to following any diet. Living in Bangalore, my life has become unbearable with this condition, and I really need some guidance on the treatment options available. Can you help?
Ayurveda can be a beneficial complementary approach for managing IBS symptoms, and some patients have reported significant relief; in Bangalore, you can consult Ayurvedic hospitals like SDM College of Ayurveda or AyurVAID, which offer personalized treatment plans, including dietary modifications, herbal supplements, and Panchakarma therapies, with treatment duration varying from 3-6 months to 1-2 years, depending on individual responses and severity of symptoms.
