I've been dealing with really hard stools for more than two weeks now, and it's getting quite painful. I don't have any other symptoms, but it's tough to pass them, and I've never experienced anything like this before. I've even tried making some lifestyle changes. What could be causing this, and what can I do to get some relief?

I have a 3 to 4 mm gallbladder stone seen in my ultrasound and I'm experiencing abdominal pain. Do I need surgery for this or are there other treatment options?

Since the stone is very small u may now require medical management only. A course of antibiotics for 5-7 days is advised to the patient.Also a sugergy opinion is advised to the patient.

I'm feeling pretty worried because for the past 10 days, no matter how little I eat, I always feel like my stomach is super full, and I'm dealing with shortness of breath and a lot of burping. It gets even worse when I'm trying to sleep. I saw a gastroenterologist and started taking some meds like pantodac DSR, RCIFAX 550, and GAVISCON syrup for the last 3 days, and I'm feeling a little better. But, recently, I've been noticing my chest feels tight and heavy, and sometimes breathing gets tough. I dont have many other symptoms, just a really rare dry cough, maybe 3-4 times a day. Should I be worried about the coronavirus, or is this something more normal? Looking for some guidance here.
