Brief Answer:
Can be monitored

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for your query.

Weight gain can be from many reasons including fat deposition, fluid retention, upset stomach and bloating, etc. Do you have any other symptoms? Have you changed your diet recently? Are you taking more of high calorie foods like cheese, butter, ghee, etc? Please answer these questions so that I am better able to help you.

I would suggest that you regularly monitor your weight and waist circumference at home. A doctor can easily tell on examination if it is fat or fluid. Taking Pan-D would be unnecessary.

Let me know if I can assist you further.

Brief Answer:
Maybe due to bloating

Detailed Answer:
Hi again

I think its normal. Maybe bloating. Whenever you are travelling, take precaution to eat hygienic food. But if you do not have any other symptom then it can be ignored.

Brief Answer:
I will suggest to rule out edema

Detailed Answer:
Welcome back

Since your face is also bigger, I will suggest that you rule out edema first. See an internal medicine specialist.

Regarding bloating, it usually happens due to germs in stomach or liver conditions.
Germs in stomach can be avoided by taking hygienic food and cleaner water. Avoid the mineral water. Take RO water.
Taking medicines to resolve medicine may not be very helpful and may also result in side effect. Occasionally gasex by himalaya or gripe water may help. Another option is to take simethicone available in many brands like Cohero tablets or colicaid syrup when the symptoms are bad. They temporarily take care of the symptoms.

Regarding diet, avoid much of complex proteins like beans, black gram, etc or any other food like milk or juice that may be producing more of bloating. Otherwise bloating usually resolves by itself in some time with healthy lifestyle.

Brief Answer:
Take it when you are really troubled with the symptoms

Detailed Answer:
Hi and sorry for the late reply.
I was really preoccupied with my other professional obligations.

It is better to take these tablets only when you are really troubled by symptoms. It should not be taken daily. In your case you can take one tablet in the morning after a light breakfast.

Hope it helps.

Dr Vaishalee
