Suggest Treatment For Constipation, Abdominal Bloating And Flatulence
I am under doctor s care right now blood work has been completed twice. First time low Vitamin B & D - Second time slightly high phosphates, that could have been caused by taking a laxitive. Started out with constant constipation, then horrible bloating and gas. Small meals did not make a difference, changing diet did not help. He plans on scheduling an Ultra sound but this has been going on for 10 months and I am so tired of being miserable. I have been given Nexium that reduces the acid but does nothing for gas and bloating. Constant pressure in front just below rib cage now moving to mid back. A lot of it is caused by the gas being developed. Any suggestions for relief while I am waiting?
I advise you to take simple steps:
1. use pantop D medication, this medicine reduces gastritis, increase bowel motility
2. use albendazole tablet. NOT MORE THAN 1 - this is a deworming agent which clears parasites usually this is one of the common cause of bloating.
3. use more green vegetables, salads, antioxidants like vitamin E and try to drink lots of water.
4. use rifagut.
If these measures will not subside your problem kindly visit medical gastroenterologist who will usually advise ultrasound/endoscopy and do the needful.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
