Suggest Medications For Gastric Problem

I have gastric problem. My stomach swells like pregnant women. I can not sit in this situation either I can lay on the bed or stand. My stomach tight like balloon. I feel if I could puncture my stomach. If I eat mango pickles then gas releases fast and I feel relaxed. Do any medicine which can rectify the problem. I am 63 years old.

Hello madam..

Thanks for contacting HCM..

You are 63 years old and you have bloating stomach.

Madam medicines should help you but considering your age I would recommend to get investigated before getting treated.

A simple non invasive ultra sound abdomen and basic cardiac testing should help us.(cardiac evaluation is to rule out heart problems which can rarely present like this).

Till then help yourself with bland split frequent diet probiotic rich(buttermilk) and always assume erect posture after food for half an hour..

Take care Madam.
