My mom accidentally swallowed a small plastic stick that was on a cake. She drank some water, and it seems to have gone down her throat just fine. She's acting normal now, but I'm still a bit worried. What should we do next? Should we just wait and see, or is it better to get it checked out?

I've been dealing with a stomach ache for the past couple of days, and it's really starting to worry me. The pain only lasts a few minutes each time it hits, but it's happening multiple times a day at random intervals. It feels like something's tightening up inside my stomach and squeezing it hard for a moment. What could be causing this? Any advice would be really appreciated.

I'm having this really uncomfortable issue with gas that seems to flare up after lunch and gradually gets worse by the evening. It's like my digestive power just isn't what it used to be. I feel hungry, but when I eat, it doesn't seem to digest properly, and my stomach feels tight. Even if I eat just a little bit, I start burping a lot. This has been going on for about 4 to 5 years. Any idea what's going on or what I can do about it?
Your symptoms of gas, bloating, reduced digestive power, feeling uneasy, and difficulty digesting food, which have persisted for 4-5 years, may indicate underlying conditions such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), gastroparesis, small intestine bacterial overgrowth (SIBO), or enzyme deficiencies, so it's essential to consult a gastroenterologist for a thorough evaluation, diagnosis, and personalized treatment plan to alleviate your symptoms and improve digestion.
