View allI'm dealing with frequent burping throughout the day, like around 100 times. It's been going on for about a year now, and it's not just after meals. I even burp after just drinking water. Plus, my stomach seems to be getting bigger, even though I'm normally a skinny guy. It really worries me. Do you know what could be causing this or how I can stop it?
Possible Causes_ 1. *Hypnic jerk*: A common, harmless condition causing sudden, brief contractions of the muscles. 2. *Tic or movement disorder*: Conditions like Tourette's syndrome or dystonia can cause repetitive, involuntary movements. 3. *Neurological conditions*: Certain conditions, such as Parkinson's disease, multiple sclerosis, or peripheral neuropathy, can cause sudden jerks or movements. 4. *Muscle spasms*: Tight muscles or muscle fatigue can lead to sudden jerks. 5. *Caffeine or medication side effects*: Excessive caffeine consumption or certain medications can cause muscle twitching or jerking. _Recommendations_ 1. *Consult a neurologist*: Schedule an appointment to evaluate the cause of the sudden jerks. 2. *Keep a symptom journal*: Record the frequency, duration, and characteristics of the jerks to share with your doctor. 3. *Get a thorough medical examination*: Rule out underlying medical conditions that may be contributing to the sudden jerks. 4. *Manage stress and fatigue*: Engage in stress-reducing activities, like meditation or yoga, and prioritize getting enough sleep. 5. *Avoid excessive caffeine and sugar*: Reduce or avoid consuming excessive caffeine and sugar, which can exacerbate muscle twitching.

I had a fissurectomy about a year ago, and lately, I've noticed that my stools are really thin. I was looking this up online and came across some scary stuff about rectal cancer. Could this be related or something I should be worried about?
It's understandable to be concerned, but thin stools alone are not necessarily a sign of rectal cancer. After a fissurectomy, changes in stool consistency can happen due to factors like diet or healing. However, if you notice other symptoms like blood in your stool, persistent pain, or unexplained weight loss, it's important to consult your doctor for a thorough evaluation.

I'm experiencing this on-and-off burning sensation near my lower left rib. It feels just like a hot burning thing going on, especially when I'm lying down. It's so strange because when I'm busy with work or moving around, there's no pain at all, but as soon as I lie down, that hot feeling pops up near my left rib towards the back. It's been two weeks already! I'm not in pain, more like a discomfort really, as the left side aches near the lower rib with this heat thing happening. Any idea what this could be and how I could maybe get rid of it?
