I'm having these gas issues and it's causing some chest pain, especially on the left side of my chest. I've been taking medicine for it, but still, the pain comes and goes, like when I bend or sometimes when I take a deep breath. Could all of this be just because of gas?

How do I know if my stomach pain is serious?
Usual causes of stomach pain are acidity, indigestion, gall stones, intestinal disorders, kidney stones and infections. Most of them can be mild and be treated at home under doctor's guidance but sometimes, any of them can cause sudden sharp pain with intense vomiting and diarrhea. So, it is better to consult with doctor and take treatment as early as possible.

My friend had an endoscopy last week and they found a small hiatal hernia with some LAK lesions. They've been dealing with gastric issues for 3 years now antacids haven't helped at all. Is this something that can improve with meditation or lifestyle changes, or is surgery the only option? How serious is this condition?
A small hiatal hernia, especially with some LAK lesions (likely meaning low-grade acute inflammation), may be managed with lifestyle changes and medication, and surgery isn't always the first option. While antacids might not have been effective, other treatments like H2 blockers or proton pump inhibitors could be helpful. Meditation and lifestyle adjustments, such as weight management, can also help manage symptoms.
