Recently I also lost weight in half of 2018 is 56kg, 2019 is 53kg, 2020 is 50kg. The doctor advises me to help me with abdominal pain around the navel with belching, what does weight loss indicate?

Hello.
You did not say how your stools were. But according to the symptoms of abdominal pain around the navel with belching, weight loss you describe, you are showing signs of intestinal semi-obstruction, with unexplained weight loss. Therefore, you should consult a gastroenterologist at a reputable medical facility or one of the hospitals under the Vinmec Health System nationwide for advice on testing and gastrointestinal endoscopy.
