I've been dealing with some gastric acidity for the past month, and I'm on medication, including 1 monticop tablet daily, 2 deriphyllin 300 tablets, and 3 rbson D capsules. It's really uncomfortable, and I'm wondering if there's anything else I can do to alleviate this issue or if a change in the medication might be necessary? Do you think these meds are contributing to my stomach problems, or is it something else I should be looking into?

Why does my breath smell like poop?

The common causes for your breath to smell like feces are sinus and respiratory infections (such as bronchitis, viral colds, strep throat), poor oral hygiene (infrequent cleaning, chronic dry mouth, oral infections, smoking or chewing tobacco), Gastroesophageal reflux disease, abscessed tooth, prolonged vomiting (> 24 hours) and bowel obstruction.

I've been having some issues with my digestion lately. My farts and motions have a strong, bad smell no matter what I eat. Plus, I feel more comfortable sleeping on my right side because when I try to sleep on my left, I get this slight discomfort below my stomach. What could be causing this?

I'm having trouble with my bowel movements for the past two years. I've tried taking 12 full tablets of CremaLax to control it, but I'm worried about getting too used to it. I've also been eating a lot of fibrous vegetables, but they haven't really helped. Can you give me some advice on what else I could try?

Take 2 glasses of water in the morning. You can take isabgol husk for few days. Increase fruits, vegetables in your diet & drink 10-12 glasses of water.
