I'm having a really hard time breathing because of this gas and my chest feels really heavy. I'm pretty sure it's because I haven't been eating and sleeping well, and now I've got this terrible gastric problem. Can you help me figure out how to ease this?

I've been dealing with a fissure for about 2 months now at the 6 o'clock position and have been using ano metrogyl cream along with meds as prescribed. How long does it usually take to heal completely and will I eventually need surgery for this?

Anal fissures usually heal within a few weeks, often within 3-6 weeks, with appropriate treatment. If your fissure has persisted for 2 months, it may be considered chronic and might require more intensive treatment, including potentially surgery.

I have a hiatus hernia and it's causing a lot of acidity problems and mouth ulcers. Is there any medicine that can help or is surgery the only option? It's really uncomfortable and I'm not sure what to do about it.

Hiatus hernia with reflux and ulcers responds to PPIs (like omeprazole),prokinetics,and lifestyle changes.Surgery (e.g., fundoplication) is for severe or persistent symptoms.
