I've been having this pain on the right side below my chest for the last two days, especially when I breathe and yawn. I've also been burping all day. This started after I was fasting on Saturday and had liquid fasting on Monday. I did take a gas tablet yesterday, but the pain is still there today when I woke up. I can't visit a hospital right now because of the lockdown and the situation outside. Do you think this could just be gas pain?

My friend has been experiencing stomach pain ever since she lifted a heavy bucket of water two days ago. She's tried some meds, but they didnt help at all. She even tried a massage to relieve the pain, but it seems to have made things worse. She saw a doctor who said its normal and will heal soon, but there's been no improvement. Should we be concerned, or is there something else we could try?

I'm having this weird issue where I'm getting hot air from my anus. It's really uncomfortable to sit down, but I'm sure it's not piles because I've already had that checked out. Can you help me figure out what's going on and how I can deal with it?

It sounds like you may be experiencing issues related to gastrointestinal gas or irritation in the anal area, which can cause discomfort. I recommend staying hydrated, avoiding gas-producing foods, and using a soothing topical ointment. If the discomfort persists, its best to consult a gastroenterologist for further evaluation and treatment.

I'm dealing with stomach issues a lot lately. It's been happening a couple of times just in this past week, and I really don't feel like eating anything. Last night was pretty rough with vomiting, and I've had these intense headaches all day. Do you have any idea what might be going on?

It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of gastritis, which is inflammation of the stomach lining. To help with your symptoms, you can take over-the-counter antacids like Maalox or Mylanta to help reduce stomach acid. Additionally, you can try taking Omeprazole (Prilosec) 20mg once daily before breakfast to further reduce stomach acid production. It's also important to avoid spicy, acidic, and fatty foods that can irritate the stomach. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
