What Does Presence Of Air In Stomach Suggest?
Question: I am faced with the problem of lot of air in the stomache
Brief Answer:
Change your diet and lifestyle. This is the best medicine. Take antacids.
Detailed Answer:
Dear XXXX,
Health problems of flatulence are caused by excess acid in the stomach, infections and stress. Dietary components like beans and such foods which are rich in carbohydrates can also cause flatulence. The best solution for you is a lifestyle change like shifting to lean protein food and avoiding starch. Kindly avoid foods that are spicy. If possible try antacids, start with magnesia combinations and perhaps visit a local doctor who will probably give you an antacid drug like Ranitidine, or Pantoprazole. Try to avoid stress and tension. This will help greatly. Kindly take tests to detect any infections. I would like you to write back to me as regards this treatment plan for you. Feel free to express any doubts.
Take care,
Dr. Neel Kudchadkar
