I've been dealing with this navel displacement issue for the past four years, and it's really impacting my digestion and causing constipation. I constantly feel bloated, like there's air trapped in my abdomen. I've tried acupuncture and am currently taking pantocid and other gastric meds, but nothing seems to fully work. Is there any effective treatment out there that I haven't tried yet?

It sounds like you're dealing with a persistent issue, and while treatments like acupuncture and pantocid can help manage symptoms, addressing the root cause of navel displacement might require a more targeted approach, like physical therapy or consulting a specialist in abdominal health. Its important to find a treatment plan that works specifically for your condition, so it may be worth revisiting a gastroenterologist or exploring other holistic options.

I'm experiencing some discomfort and it's making me quite worried. I recently dealt with a lower respiratory infection which is now better, but I've been having these digestion issues since. After I eat, it feels like there's gas building up in my chest. It's strange because there's no pain, just a lot of discomfort. Lately, I've been feeling this tightness or gas build-up in my throat area, or maybe it's the food pipe, again without any pain but really uncomfortable. This tightness is mostly around the lower throat, and sometimes I feel it behind my sternum. What could be causing these symptoms, and what should I do about it?
