My mom's been dealing with a burning sensation for the past 7-8 months and the doctor thinks it's due to acidity but it hasnt gotten any better. Shes also on meds for diabetes, high blood pressure, and a 14 mm kidney stone. Heres what shes taking: Glycomet 250, Azulix, Clopivas, Rebagem, Panplus D 40, Nikoran 5, Stonex, Laregab AT LS, Olmat, and Nurokind. I'm worried because nothing seems to help with the burning. Could this mix of medications be causing it, or could it be something else? What should we do next?

I'm feeling a really sharp pinching pain right when I start to have a bowel movement. I've dealt with constipation before, but this pain is new to meand it first happened even when I wasnt constipated. There's no medication I'm taking that could explain this. Any ideas on what might be going on?
That could be due to hard stools consume plenty of water and fibre rich diet to avoid constipation,if its becoming worse visit physician for appropriate management

I'm really struggling with this really loud sound coming from my stomach, and it's so embarrassing, especially when I'm around other people. I just feel really uncomfortable. What can I do to stop these gurgling sounds?
The gurgling sound from your stomach is a natural part of digestion, but it can be minimized with lifestyle and dietary changes. Eat smaller meals, chew thoroughly, and avoid gassy foods and carbonated drinks. Manage stress and stay hydrated to support digestion.If the issue persists or causes significant discomfort, its important to seek medical advice to rule out any underlying digestive issues.
