Hello dear,
The symptoms as mentioned in your post is attributed to accumulation of gas secondary to increased acid production in the stomach.
Symptomatic relief can be obtained with intake of Emazole (to be taken twice a day before meals) & antacid gel (to be taken after meals).
They prevent formation of excess acid in the stomach & provide symptomatic relief.
And it is also needed that he takes certain precautions regarding his diet & lifestyle, such as:
1. Take soft, plain, non-spicy foods
2. Drink lots of water to maintain adequate hydration
3. Avoid fast foods & gas producing food products like cabbage, etc.
4. Avoid smoking & alcohol.
5. Keep away stress, think positive.
There is no need to worry, he will be fine.
Wishing a good health.
Take care.
