Whenever I take a deep breath or yawn, I feel a sharp pain in my stomach. On top of that, my stomach feels really bloated and hard. Could this be something serious or just digestive issues? What should I be concerned about?

Could be a sign of gas or indigestion. I recommend taking an antacid like Tums (calcium carbonate) 500mg tablets to help with the bloating and indigestion. You can take 2 tablets as needed, up to four times a day. Additionally, you can try Simethicone (Gas-X) 125mg chewable tablets to help relieve gas.
