Suggest Treatment For Constipation, Vomiting, Pain In Stomach And Acidity

Hi, My aunt (72 years old) has the following symptoms: unable to have a bowel movement, not able to eat much, threw up yesterday, has pain in her belly (can t touch it), has gas and burping and now cannot relieve it. It s painful for her to set up as it bends her stomach/ puts pressure on it. Thank you for your help. Tammy

Since your Aunty is elderly, she can take Ispaghula husk one tablespoonful at bed time for constipation. This is a safe medicine for her. For her gas and pain in belly problem, she can take tablet containing Pantaprazole + Domperidone; this will also improve her appetite
