Hi Dear, Welcome to HCM. Understanding your concern. As per your query you are having symptoms of bloated stomach and constipation which can occur due to many reasons such as irritable bowel syndrome, some medications like antidepressants, eating a lot of dairy products, acidity and lack of fibers in diet. Identification of cause is most important. Need not to worry. You should avoid intake of hot, sharp and spicy food substances. For now drink lot of water , do light exercises and avoid fatty and heavy meals. I would suggest you to consult gastroenterologist for proper examination. Doctor may order colonoscopy or other tests to look for blockages in your colon. You should get barium studies and blood test for hormonal changes. Doctor may prescribe you stool softeners as well. Hope your concern has been resolved. Get Well Soon. Best Wishes, Dr. Harry Maheshwari
