I've been having a lot of issues with my stomach being really bloated and hard, like it's filled with gas all the time. It's starting to feel like a rock, and it's making me really uncomfortable. Even when I eat normal foods, I end up with acidity. I talked to my general practitioner, and I've been taking Esoz D when the bloating and acidity hit, but I'm worried its not really solving the issue. Is there something else I can do to get this under control? Should I be looking at my diet or something else?

You may be experiencing symptoms of excessive gas and bloating, which can lead to acidity. In addition to taking esoz D, you can also try taking simethicone (Gas-X) to help relieve gas and bloating. For acidity, you can consider taking ranitidine (Zantac) to reduce stomach acid production. Make sure to follow the recommended dosage instructions for each medication.

View allI'm having this feeling like there's a needle and a burning sensation inside my anus, especially when I sit down. It's really annoying, and when I walk, it feels like there's stool stuck there. I've been dealing with constipation for about 34 weeks now, and just yesterday when I tried forcing the stool out, I felt like a jolt of pain, like a needle inside. What could be causing this, and how can I get some relief?
The symptoms of feeling a needle-like sensation, heat, and pain in the anus, accompanied by constipation and a sensation of stool presence, could indicate an anal fissure, hemorrhoids, or proctitis; consider consulting a gastroenterologist
