Thank you for your question
First the larygitis is not directly related to has in the stomach or chest.
1. The medicine given for larygitis may have side effect in the stomach so its important to confirm which one you are taking and thier side effects
For the gas in the stomach you need follow up
Let have physical exam to confirm the gas and bowel sounds
1. Abdominal x Ray and Ct Scan to rule out any mass/ gas in the stomach / abdomen
2. H pylori for peptic ulcers and hyperacidity which may have been there or caused or eccerelated by the drugs given for laryngitis
Treatment
This will depend on the tests results
Take alot of WATER and vegs
Fruits
Multivitamins for appetite
Consult gastroenterologist for further advice
