Why do I feel like pooping but nothing comes out?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
It can be because of lack of fibre in diet and some intestinal conditions like irritable bowel syndrome. Try to include 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 in diet and take plenty of fluids.If issue still persist then consult a doctor.

I'm really struggling with lax lesophagitis and pangastritis for the past decade, and I've been on PPIs for about the same amount of time. The side effects are becoming a bit too much to handle. Should I think about surgery as an option, or just stick it out with the PPIs?
Surgery may be an option for you if your symptoms are not well-controlled with PPIs and if you're experiencing intolerable side effects. However, continuing with medications and making lifestyle adjustments may also improve your condition

I'm a bit worried and curious if there's any connection between not masturbating for a while and having stomach issues like acid reflux. I've been experiencing acid reflux and thought maybe it's linked to this. Is there any harm in masturbation related to this, or is it okay if I start again since it's been tough to resist?
There is no direct link between masturbation and acid reflux. Masturbation is a normal activity and, in general, doesnt cause digestive issues like acid reflux. If you're experiencing acid reflux, it may be related to diet, stress, or other factors. If you feel the urge, its fine to engage in the activity in moderation, but focusing on managing your reflux through lifestyle changes and medical advice may help more with your symptoms.
