Suggest Remedy For Stomach Pain And Bloating

Hello,

I ate a large meal two days ago with a large quantity of meat. Immediately after the meal I felt bloated, heavy and unwell. Did some light exercise but still feeling bloated. It has been two days now and I continue to have the same symptoms but now the pain in my stomach is worse. Could this be just simple indigestion?

Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted the history and understood the concerns.
Large meal with meat can cause the following things.
If there is any undigested large piece of meal that gets stuck in the small intestine due to pre-existing disease of the intestine can cause the symptoms of bloating and pain.
Hence I would advise you the following in such a situation.
Clinical evaluation by a General Surgeon.
X-ray of the abdomen in standing position.
Ultrasonography of abdomen.
Tests of stool, urine and blood.
All these will help to get an appropriate diagnosis so that a proper management can be planned.
Till then be on liquid diet only with plenty of water so that dehydration is avoided.
