I've been having really frequent bowel movements lately, and the stool has a super foul smell. Its often runny, and I keep feeling bloated because of all the gas. What could be going on here? Should I be worried?

View allI've been having some trouble with my anal area lately. It feels like it gets really tight and ends up hurting during bowel movements. It almost feels like the walls are tearing. What could be causing this, and how can I make it better?
The symptoms you're describing, including a narrowing of the anal opening, pain during bowel movements, and anal tears, suggest a possible diagnosis of anal stenosis or anal fissures; consult a gastroenterologist, proctologist, or a general surgeon for a thorough examination, which may include a digital rectal exam, anoscopy, or colonoscopy, to determine the underlying cause and develop an appropriate treatment plan, which may involve topical creams, stool softeners, or surgical interventions.

My wife had acute gall stone pancreatitis back in 2014 and got her gallbladder removed. All her blood tests and USG reports came back normal, but she still gets really bad leg pain at night and in the mornings. She also has loose motions once a week with a burning feeling in her stomach. Could these issues be related to her past condition or is something else going on?
It's possible that your wife's symptoms could be related to her past history of acute gallstone pancreatitis and gallbladder removal, even if her blood tests and USG are normal. However, it's also important to rule out other potential causes, especially if the symptoms are significant or persistent.

I've been dealing with sticky stools and really smelly gas for about 20 days now. It's starting to worry me. Do you think I should get a stool test done? Also, what kind of treatment would you suggest for this?
Given your 20-day symptoms of sticky stools and smelly gas, consider consulting a gastroenterologist for a comprehensive evaluation, including a stool test to rule out underlying conditions like malabsorption, small intestine bacterial overgrowth (SIBO), or gastrointestinal infections, and treatment may involve antibiotics, probiotics, or dietary modifications.
