I've been having some discomfort on the left side just below my ribs for the past two weeks. It's really tender to the touch and gets quite painful. Plus, I've been experiencing a lot of stomach bloating, especially after I eat. It even affects my breathing at times, making it short, and my heart seems to race when my stomach is bloated. Does this sound familiar, and what might be causing these symptoms?

View allI've been yawning a lot lately, like way more than usual, and I'm starting to wonder if it's linked to my digestion somehow. I've been feeling some pressure in my neck and back, but it seems to ease up when I yawn. Could too much gas in my body cause this? I'm trying to figure out what's going on.
Excessive yawning can be linked to indigestion or gas buildup, as it may trigger the body to attempt to regulate oxygen levels and relieve pressure. The pressure in your neck and back may be due to muscle tension, and yawning could help release that tension, offering temporary relief. If these symptoms persist, its a good idea to consult a doctor to rule out any underlying digestive issues.

I'm feeling really tired and weak after I have a bowel movement, like my whole body is worn out and my knees hurt. It usually gets better once I eat something. Should I be worried about this, or is there something I'm missing in my diet or routine?
Your symptoms of weakness, hunger, fatigue, and knee joint pain after bowel movements could be related to various factors, including irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), gastrointestinal infection, inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), or nutrient deficiencies; consider consulting a gastroenterologist for a thorough evaluation, and in the meantime, try to maintain a food diary to track your symptoms, eat smaller, frequent meals, and stay hydrated to help manage your symptom

I'm a 31-year-old woman considering laparoscopic surgery to remove just my gallstones without taking out the gallbladder. Will I be okay long-term or is it better to remove the whole gallbladder? Also, could this cause any issues if I have a second pregnancy later?
Removing just the gallstones without the gallbladder is generally discouraged, as the gallbladder is not vital, and removing it can lead to a simpler, more straightforward procedure. While you can live with the gallbladder and just remove the stones, studies show that removal of the gallbladder is the most reliable long-term solution for gallstones. Furthermore, removing the gallbladder doesn't pose long-term problems for women, and it is unlikely to cause any issues with future pregnancies
