Weird stomach problem for 11 days

I seem to be having an extremely weird problem. On Saturday July 17, I had gone to the beach. The day before I had eaten some Chinese food and become bloated the day I had gone to the beach. While I was at the beach I had that strange bloating feeling following me so I ate less. After that I went swimming. Half an hour later I was feeling horrible, I kept needing to go to the washroom and I felt nauseous. I got home without throwing up. For the next 2 days I was perfectly fine besides the minor constipation ( feeling like i need to go washroom but stool just won't come out). On Tuesday the 20th I felt horrible. I had bloating, nausea, poor appetite, constipation and I was burping a lot. A couple of days later I felt the same way in the morning but in the afternoon I felt perfectly fine as if nothing had happened to me. The doctor passed it off as "male puberty" (hormonal change etc. I'm 14)  The doctor gave me Zantac (ranitidine-hcl) and said it would help with my symptoms and it should go away in a matter of weeks. I am feeling slightly better but today I felt nauseas, bloated and had an upset stomach and I had to go somewhere in the morning (maybe I was just worrying, anxiety?) And during dinner I had an upset stomach, nausea and I just didn't feel like eating. I was eating fruits and non-junky food for a couple of days and I did feel better. And I felt perfectly fine today morning and I had realized that I forgot to take Zantac the night before like the doctor told me to so I took it in the morning. Please help me, I'm getting desperate and it's making me worry a lot.

Why can't I edit my posts? I left 1 thing out. My stools float and there is mucus sometimes in them.

Edit: Also my stools come out soft sometimes and hard sometimes and I strain sometimes to get them out. After taking them out I still feel like I need to go poop. It feels like its stuck right around my rectum. I go to the washroom atleast 5-6 times in the morning. In the afternoon I can't go poop even if I tried hard, it feels like it gets stuck somewhere near the rectum.
