I have been bedridden for 3 years and take dulcolax tablets every night for bowel movements, which result in loose stools and severe upper stomach pain in the center of my stomach, the size of a big grapefruit. The pain is constant, sharp, and stabbing. I also experience difficulty passing gas, despite feeling it in my rectum. I have a history of CIDP, Sjogrens, severe arthritis, 100 muscle loss, total atrophy, heart disease, a major heart attack in 2014, hereditary high cholesterol, anxiety, and depression. What could be causing this severe stomach pain after bowel movements, and what can help alleviate the pain?

I have been experiencing congestion, coughing with yellow/green phlegm, and a sore throat for over a week. My rib cage is achy due to excessive coughing. I have finished a box of cold & sinus pills with no effect. I have tested negative for COVID three times. What should I do for relief?

I’m experiencing burning tingling on the top of one foot, along with pain near the big toe on both feet. I’m concerned about the cause and whether it could be related to diabetes or other conditions. What could be the reasons for these sensations, and are there any immediate steps I can take to alleviate them?
