Hello, I have a long-term discomfort in the navel area. It doesn't occur to me that it worsens food, alcohol, it's completely coincidental. Sometimes its about 20 minutes, sometimes for 5 hours. It's been going on for four months. I used take proton pump inhibitor for two weeks a month ago. I have been taking probiotics on and off for three months, they slightly improve the condition. After taking ppi, the flatulence decreased, now it is present only in the evening and in the morning. The stool is regular, the shape is sometimes bristol chart 4 and mostly 5. Can anyone help me? Im 28 years old white male, slightly overweight.
