Suggest Remedies For Bloating And Growling Of My Stomach

Hello Doctor, I am Arjun, 30 years old. My stomach is growling all the times. And if I take oily and spicy foods, the problem will be high. If I am hungry it growls loud. My collegues who are sitting beside me can hear that. The people around me thinking that I am farting. It is very embarrasing to me to sit among the people and to be in silent area. I have consulted some doctors , they have done endoscopy and said everything is normal. But the problem is always there. How to get rid of this problem. I hope I will get solution here.

Hello Mr Arjun
I really appreciate your concern.

Bloating and gurgling sounds in stomach might be related to any of following conditions
1. Aerophagia (swallowing of air) may be due to ill fitted denture, smoking or use of carbonated and caffeinated beverages.
2. Acid peptic disease due to stomach hyperacidity
3. Alcohol or beer consumption
4. High protein diet
5. Lactose intolerance or
6. Liver or pancreatic disease ( enzymes deficiency state)

In my opinion you should try to identify underlying condition among any of these.
You can take antiacidity medicines like pantoprazole or ranitidine group of drugs for 3 to 5 days.
You should take lots of fresh fruits and boiled vegetables.
Complete avoidance of carbonated drinks for a while.

Hope this helps you, if it doesn't than you can take enzymes supplement like pepsin and chymotrypsin which is available over the counter as well.

Thanks for your question, please feel free to ask for further clarification, I will happily answer you.
Best wishes
