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.

I've been having this burning sensation around my rectum for a few days now, and I'm a bit worried. My meals have been pretty spicy lately, so I'm thinking that might have something to do with it. I've been drinking plenty of water, so I'm not sure what else could be causing it. Do you have any advice on how I can make this go away?

Can surgery is possible for superior mesentric artery syndrome Tell me about various treatment.I have consulted many doctors but not able to get rid from it.

Another surgical approach to treating SMA syndrome is a duodenojejunostomy, in which the compressed portion of the duodenum is released and an anastomosis is created between the duodenum and jejunum anterior to the superior mesenteric artery. This is the classic approach to SMA syndrome.

I'm noticing some blood when I go to the bathroom and I'm pretty sure it's because I've got a scratch or something in the passage near the exit. It's also really burning when I poop. Can you help me figure out what's going on?

It sounds like you might have a small tear or fissure near your anus, which can cause bleeding and burning during bowel movements. It's important to keep the area clean, avoid straining, and consider using a soothing cream like zinc oxide or a sitz bath. If the bleeding continues or worsens, it's a good idea to consult with a doctor.
