I've been having this abdominal pain in my lower groin area, and it seems to get worse when I feel like I need to pass stool, which has been coming out black. There's also a lot of gas and I feel hungry, but every time I eat, I feel an immediate urge to use the bathroom again. It's been a bit worrying, and Im wondering what could be causing it?
Try to identify and avoid the foods that affect you the most. Foods that cause gas problems . Try cutting back on fried and fatty foods.Often, bloating results from eating fatty foods. Fat delays stomach emptying and can increase the sensation of fullness. Reduce your use of dairy products. Try using low-lactose dairy foods, such as yogurt, instead of milk. Try smaller portions-Many of the foods that can cause gas are part of a healthy diet. So, try eating smaller portions of problem foods to see if your body can handle a smaller portion without creating excess gas. Eat slowly, chew your food thoroughly and don't gulp. Don't smoke Cigarette smoking can increase the amount of air you swallow. Physical activity may help move gas through the digestive tract.

My husband seems to be dealing with what we think is hyperacidity. Every 30 to 40 days, he gets this stomach pain, and if it gets worse, he ends up vomiting. Also, hes been noticing some small swollen balls near his anal area that burst after a day or two and then bleed. He cant wear tight jeans or pants either because they make his stomach hurt more. We're really worried and would love some insight on what might be going on and how we can manage or treat this. Any advice?
