Here are some common daily problems we might suffer from.

If Your Tummy Growls: Usually it’s just contractions of stomach and intestinal muscles, a normal part of digestion. This is usually caused by stress, which may explain why your belly is embarrassingly vocal every time you are in an important meeting.

What you should do about it: Track your symptoms. Certain foods, such as dairy products and high-carb items, might raise the noise factor. Try to avoid such foods to see what happens. Work on eliminating stress through yoga or meditation

Consider seeing a doctor if abdominal noises are really bothering you in social situations, ask your doctor about antispasmodic medication.

If Your Joints are Crackling: Joint noise without pain, usually caused by air bubbles in the protective fluid cushioning your joints, is harmless, though it may signal that you’re stressed. When stress levels rise, the joints in the neck tighten and tend to crack more.

What you should do about it: Do neck rolls every 45 to 60 minutes. Try regular yoga or massage to ease stress.

Consider seeing a doctor if you experience any grinding or popping that comes with pain, locking, swelling, or limited motion. This could signal an exercise injury, a temporomandibular joint disorder, if the pain is in your jaw, your doctor may prescribe exercise, a prescription-strength pain reliever, a cortisone injection, or physical therapy.

If You are Snuffling and Snorting: This simply means that mucus is blocking the flow of air in your nose.

What you should do about it: Flushing with a saline rinse can clear excess mucus that comes with a common cold or seasonal allergies. Put the solution in each nostril using the nasal spray bottle. It’ll flow out of the opposite nostril. Then blow your nose.

Consider seeing a doctor if your snuffling is accompanied by bleeding or yellow-green drainage, if the congestion gets worse after five days, lasts more than 10 days, or is accompanied by headache or facial pain. You could have a sinus infection, which is treated with antibiotics.

If You are Belching and Gurgling: This means You have swallowed excess air, either while eating or conversing. But burps and gurgles can also point to gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), a common condition that often develops from overeating or pressure on the stomach (up to 50 percent of pregnant women suffer from it). Stomach acid seeps up into your esophagus, where it can cause heartburn, burping, chest pain, sore throat, hoarseness, bad breath, and in serious cases, gurgling noises caused by regurgitation of food or acid.

What you should do about it: As you have been always told, don’t talk with your mouth full. That can cut back on burping, as can limiting gum-chewing and fizzy beverages. To avoid GERD, eat small, frequent meals, skip foods that worsen the symptoms like caffeinated drinks, onions, chocolate, and garlic, and pass on taking a nap after lunch. You may also get relief from a nonprescription antacid.

Consider seeing a doctor if you experience symptoms of GERD more than once a week, particularly at night, your doctor may recommend a prescription antacid or order an endoscopy to rule out esophageal cancer, which can result from untreated GERD. If symptoms worsen, you may need surgery, although this is rare.

If You have Gases: Another normal way the body expels swallowed air or gases during digestion. It’s normal to pass gas up to 20 times a day. Beans, popular sugar substitutes like xylitol and sorbitol which are nothing more then poorly absorbed carbs, some fat-free potato chips, fructose and lactose are likely to trigger gas. Dairy products can also lead to stinky gas, as can sulfurous foods such as broccoli and cabbage. You may get gassier during your period if you’re typically prone to diarrhea or constipation, or if you succumb to chocolate cravings (sugar & carb gas combo).

What you should do about it: Eat slowly, and cut down on the beans, processed foods, and sodas, worst case, would be cutting on chocolates!

Consider seeing a doctor if you’re experiencing gas accompanied by abdominal pain, bloating, diarrhea or constipation. This may point to irritable bowel syndrome, intestinal inflammation, or a food allergy.

If You are Snoring at Night: The sound is generated when your throat muscles and tissues become overly relaxed and vibrate when you breathe. It often accompanies congestion, but some people are more prone to snoring than others.

What you should do about it: Sleep on your side when you’re congested, or try losing some weight if you’re significantly overweight can also help (less weight equals less tissue to vibrate).

Consider seeing a doctor if you wake yourself up choking or with snoring sounds, you might have sleep apnea, a serious breathing problem that can put you at risk for heart disease, stroke, and high blood pressure, there is hope.
