HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

Reflux can cause bloating but it would not normally affect the bowel movements.

There are certain foods that can also affect bowel movements. You may want to consider a food diary to see if there are any particular foods that are causing the problem.

Ulcers can cause burning pain or pain in the stomach, bloating, nausea, vomiting, bleeding in the stool (would appear dark, may have a very bad odor).

I hope this helps
