Hi
Welcome to Healthcaremagic
Greetings of the day
Dear Sir
Going by description of your symptoms it is likely to be due to flatulent dyspepsia ( excessive fermentation and formation of gas ). Following could be the following predisposing factors
1. Decreased intake of water
2. Decreased intake of fiber in diet
3. Consumption of food stuff which cause excessive fermentation and gas production
I would suggest you the following
1. Ensure good intake of water : 2 to 3 liter a day
2. High fiber diet : 2 servings of vegetable salad and 2 servings of fruits especially citrus fruit will ensure adequate intake of fiber in diet
3. Regular intake of meals
4. Simethicone (Anti flatulent agent ) based antacid will be helpful
5. Laxative like Lactulose will help relieve constipation
6. Antacid and motility promoting drug like Pantoprozole and Domperidone will help
These should definitely take care of the symptoms. If the symptoms still persist then consult your physician for further detailed clinical examination and assessment.
Do get back to me if you need any further assistance, will be glad to assist you.
Take care
