I've been diagnosed with pelvic descent and I'm not sure what to do about it. My main issue is that I don't pass stool completely even though I'm taking medicines like pegmove, duphalac, pruvict, lubbowel, cremaffin, etc. Nothing seems to help. Could this be because of pelvic descent? Would I need surgery for this and if so, what kind of surgery would it be?

View allI've been dealing with this really weird problem where my breath smells like rotten eggs or sulfur and I just can't figure out why. I brush my teeth three times a dayafter I wake up, after lunch, and before bed. I also floss regularly and use nonalcoholic mouthwash. I used to have tonsil stones and thought that might be the reason, but even after getting my tonsils removed, the smell hasn't gone away. It's like the smell is coming from the top of my mouth or maybe even from my stomach. My diet is pretty normal, and I'm maintaining a healthy weight at 6'2'' and 180 lbs. Plus, I'm pretty active since I'm always on my feet at work. What do you think could be causing this?
It could be related to gastrointestinal issues. I recommend trying a medication like omeprazole (Prilosec) 20mg once daily before breakfast to reduce stomach acid production, which can sometimes contribute to bad breath. Additionally, you can try using simethicone (Gas-X) 125mg after meals to help reduce gas in the stomach, which can also cause bad breath. Make sure to follow the recommended dosages for these medications. If the issue persists, consider consulting with a gastroenterologist for further evaluation and management.

I've been dealing with loose motions for a while now. I started taking Eldoper for around 10 days, and it seemed to help, but now that I've stopped the medicine, the loose motions are back, and my stomach is making these weird noises too. What could be going on here?
The loose motion and stomach noise after taking Eldoper (likely an antibiotic) for 10 days, and the persistence of symptoms after stopping the medication, suggest antibiotic-associated diarrhea or a potential gut microbiome imbalance; consider consulting your doctor about probiotics, dietary changes, or further evaluation to rule out underlying conditions like irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), or small intestine bacterial overgrowth (SIBO).

I've been feeling something really weird on the left side, just below my ribs for the past three months. It's like a mix of pain, ticklish sensations, and bubbling. At one point, I thought maybe I'd torn a muscle, so I rushed to emergency. They did an ECG, checked my blood pressure, and even took an X-ray, but everything came back normal. I'm on some meds that the doctor gave me from the GD Diabetes Centre like Voveran SR, Pan D, and Trinerve 75. But still, when I touch the area, it hurts a bit, and when I don't, it feels ticklish and painful at the same time. Any idea what's going on or if I should be concerned?
Orthopedic opinion is advised to the patient.
