I'm dealing with constant burps throughout the day for about a month now. I've visited the doctor three times and tried different medicines like Pantocid DSR and Rantac MPS for the first 10 days without any relief. Then, the doctor switched me to Sompraz L for another week, and now I'm taking Ganaton. I don't have any abdominal pain, I'm eating less spicy and oily foods, drinking plenty of water, and I don't smoke or drink. I go for regular walks and I'm not overweight, but I still feel like there's air bubbling up my throat, making me feel like I need to burp it out. There's no smell or taste to these burps, but it's messing up my daily life and it's really embarrassing around others. The doctor has now suggested I get an endoscopy this weekend to find out what's going on. Do you have any advice on what might be causing this or any tips on how to control it?

It's good that your doctor has recommended an endoscopy to further investigate the issue. You can continue with your current lifestyle modifications of avoiding spicy and oily foods, staying hydrated, and maintaining regular physical activity. These measures, along with the prescribed medications, may help alleviate your symptoms until the underlying cause is identified through the endoscopy.

My dad was just diagnosed with gall bladder stones and we're unsure if he needs surgery or if medication would work he's also having pain when he pees. What's the best way to handle this?

The first step is to address the pain during urination, which could indicate a urinary tract infection or other urinary problem. Then, discuss with a doctor the best course of action for the gall bladder stones, which could involve medication, lifestyle changes, or surgery

I'm having this ongoing itching issue around my anus, and it's been quite a while now. I tried taking Bandy Plus, but it hasn't helped. The itching gets worse when I'm walking. Any idea what's going on or what I can do about it?

That could be fungal infcetion,visit dermatologist for appropriate treatmen,personal hygiene is more important for a better result.

I've been dealing with hemorrhoids and noticed some bleeding lately. Can you recommend effective medicines that could help? I'd really prefer to avoid surgery if possible. What options do I have for managing this without going under the knife?

Bleeding hemorrhoids can often be managed with topical creams, laxatives, and lifestyle changes. Surgery is reserved for cases unresponsive to medical treatment.
