Suggest Treatment For Bloating And Stomach Pain

HI, I have been experiencing bloating and some occasional stomach pain over the last couple of weeks, off and on. When it first appeared I was positive for mcburney's sign, but it went away. Now it is just general bloating, especially after a meal. Everything else seems to be normal. what could this be?

Hello & Welcome to HCM,

I had gone through the case and found that there are numerous cause of bloating depending upon associated symptoms with it.

- Air swallowing (a nervous habit) normally during long time chew the chewing gums
-Constipation due to bad bowel habit or eating refined food like bread,biscuits, cornflour product,cake etc.
- Gastroesophageal reflux with weak indigestion.
- Irritable bowel syndrome having bloating with abdominal pain ,constipation or diarrhea.
-Lactose intolerance and other food intolerance.
- Overeating
- Small bowel bacterial overgrowth due to frequent gastric infection and vanishing of good bacteria .
- Weight gain

There are also other causes of bloating.

I will advise to go through the above mentioned cause ,if you find it associated with you ,then go for proper investigation and take proper treatment.

Also go for ultrasound of whole abdomen to rule out any other cause.

Meanwhile take antacid and proper healthy diet at proper time with good quantity of water.

Hope my advise will be effective for you.

Thanks,
