View allI've been dealing with a hiatus hernia for the past 2 years and have been taking a lot of antacids, but now I'm noticing side effects like burning mouth syndrome, gum irritation, and low vitamin levels. Can Ayurveda help treat hiatus hernia and reduce the gum burning? Also, I'm in Bangalore any recommendations here? Should I consider surgery for this condition?
Ayurveda can help reduce acidity but structural hernias need surgical correction. Look for centers like SDM Ayurveda or Jindal Naturecure in Bangalore.

I'm a bit worried because I've noticed blood in my stool for the past two days. What could be causing this and what should I do to take care of myself?
Passing blood in stool, also known as hematochezia, can be caused by various factors, including: constipation, anal fissures, hemorrhoids, diverticulitis, inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), colon cancer, or gastrointestinal infections; to care for yourself, drink plenty of water, eat a high-fiber diet, avoid straining during bowel movements, and consider taking a stool softener or fiber supplement; however, if bleeding persists, worsens, or is accompanied by severe abdominal pain, vomiting, or fever, seek immediate medical attention to rule out underlying conditions that require prompt treatment.

I'm dealing with nonstop burping for the past couple of days, and it all began when I was doing some neck exercises. It just doesnt seem to stop. Could you please help me figure out whats going on and how I can make it go away?
