Recurring Spells With Feeling Of Balloon Being Blown On Rib Cage, Intense Pressure. Any Ideas?

I have these attacks infrequently. All the sudden it feels like a balloon is being blown up right below my rib cage. It comes on fast, no warning. Then deflates over a period of a minute or 2. Pressure emains but not as debilitating. Can t seem to locate a Dr. who takes this pain and concern serious. I have a long history of chronic abdominal adhesions. Have had my gall bladder removed and a hysterectomy 25 years ago. Adhesion Lysis was 10-12 years ago. WHen this happens, it actually scared me to be alone. Any ideas?

Hi
welcome to healthcare magic
This is all due to flatulence, it gives pressure on your diaphragm.The flatulence may be due to low digestive power because of removal of gall bladder.Also it may happen due to constipation.so i advice you to take Ayurvedic laxative like Triphala churna 2tsf with warm water at bed time.Avoid spicy, heavy to digest food,Beckery foods.Consume shankhavati 1tab before food,it will affect more when you chew this.
Panchakarma a boby purification treatment will help to get ride of this,so consult nearest Ayurveda Consultant or Contact dr.shilpa.benade@ gmail.com
