Hi,

Thanks for writing to health care magic.

I request you to make certain life style changes.

Eat high fiber diet rich in fruits and vegetables.

Avoid junk food like colas etc

Go for a regular walk or some form of exercise.

If the symptoms still persist I request you to consult your doctor for further investigations.

Hope this helps.
Take care.
