I am suffering from regular formation of gas and release as well but sometime I need to change the angle of my body to release gas . Recently I was advised to have ayurvedic treatment which I had started fm Rajiv Gandhi Ayurvedic Hospital, they gave me Curgul-P-Ointment(External application for Haemorrhoids. But no improvement.

Hi,
Thanks for asking.
Based on your query, my opinion is as follows.
1. Decreased hemoglobin has led to weakness and tiredness.
2. Bleeding in stomach and esophagus is leading to dark tarry stools. Bleeding is also seen due to hemorrhoids. Both have led to decreased hemoglobin
3. Upper GI endoscopy is necessary for evaluation. Stopping of bleeding and nutritional supplements are necessary.
Hope it helps.
Any further queries, happy to help again.
