I've been having this issue where whenever I drink water, it seems to create gas in my stomach, and for a while afterward, I feel this heavy discomfort, almost like my stomach is full. Is this something I should be worried about? Is there something I can do to stop this from happening?

It sounds like you may be experiencing bloating or excess gas in your stomach after drinking water, which could be due to swallowing air (aerophagia) or sensitivity to certain temperature or mineral content in the water. Its advisable to drink water slowly and in smaller sips to minimize discomfort. If the issue persists, a consultation with a gastroenterologist may help identify any underlying conditions.

View allI'm having some discomfort and uneasiness around my ribs on both sides, and it even extends to my shoulders. I've been taking gastric tablets like ZENTAC every day, and I've had tests done for both heart-related and gastro issues. My endoscopy results were normal too. I'm still trying to figure out what's causing these symptoms. What other tests should I consider to get to the bottom of this?
do one routine test like complete blood count, liver function test, and chest xray

I'm experiencing this burning sensation in my upper abdomen, mostly on the right side, and it's been getting pretty intense. I also feel some shortage of breath. The pain usually lasts for about 20 to 30 minutes, and it tends to calm down after I drink a lot of water and burp, but the burning feeling lingers for a bit. This has happened 2-3 times over the last few days, and I'm a bit concerned. I have a one-month-old baby who is entirely breastfed could this be a digestive issue? I'm considering trying Ayurvedic remedies, do you think that might be a good idea?
Your symptoms appear to be that of gastroenteritis. You would require an antacid to get relief from the symptoms. Avoid spicy, oily, fried, deep fried and junk food. Aim to drink 3 litres of water per day. Limit coffee, tea and carbonated drinks to just once a day

I'm dealing with some really frustrating potty problems. For the past 2 years, I've been having irregular bowel movements, and it's just so irritating. I've been taking sorbolene syrup and cubs her, but it's not helping at all. What else can I do to get some relief?
Adding fiber to your diet increases the weight of your stool and speeds its passage through your intestines. Slowly begin to eat more fresh fruits and vegetables each day. Choose whole-grain breads and cereals..... Exercise most days of the week. Physical activity increases muscle activity in your intestines. Try to fit in exercise most days of the week... Don't ignore the urge to have a bowel movement. Take your time in the bathroom, allowing yourself enough time to have a bowel movement without distractions and without feeling rushed...
