There is no one particular miraculous food that will make you defecate immediately. You need to consume high fiber foods such as Pears, strawberries, apple, oat meal, brown rice, banana, broccoli, green leafy vegetables (kale, spinach), avocado, carrots, tomato, beans and sweet potato.and plenty of fluids to have regular normal stools.

I'm having some discomfort and uneasiness around my ribs on both sides, and it even extends to my shoulders. I've been taking gastric tablets like ZENTAC every day, and I've had tests done for both heart-related and gastro issues. My endoscopy results were normal too. I'm still trying to figure out what's causing these symptoms. What other tests should I consider to get to the bottom of this?

I'm having a bit of a worrying situation here. I had some serious gas troubles yesterday and took a Rantac 300mg tablet last night and again this morning. The gas issue seems sorted, but now I'm feeling a sharp pain under my right ribs whenever I take a deep breath. On top of that, my neck is hurting, and the pain under my ribs gets worse when I'm sitting or lying on my right side. What could be causing this?

It sounds like you may have irritation or inflammation in the area under your right ribs, possibly from acid reflux or a muscular issue. Since the pain worsens with breathing and movement, consider seeing a doctor to rule out any serious conditions like gallbladder or liver problems. Meanwhile, continue avoiding heavy meals, and take Rantac as prescribed.
