Suggest Treatment For Stomach Fullness And Constipation

Since last week my stomach has had a full feeling most of the time. I feel as though nothing is passing into my gut and have not had a bm for several days (not feeling much of anything going on down there) despite using laxatives. I don't have any cramping or pain in my lower gut, just this annoying feeling like I just ate Christmas dinner.

Gastroenterologist,  's  Response
thank your for posting query@HCM.

constipation presentation.
do not "stress" for early resolution of symptoms.
OTC simethicone tablets maybe used to combat bloating.
Chew food well and try not to talk/open mouth while chewing food and air also enters stomach and may lead to bloating.

you may act upon the following advice. Hope bowel movement would return to normal and in case, "if no effect after 5 to 7 days, then visit gastroenterologist".


meanwhile,
advice:
- thrice daily , take two tea spoon (or one big spoon) ispagula with 200 to 300 mL water
-warm water intake as much as possible
- eat small meals (rich in fiber)
-eat plentiful "fresh oranges" and "pear "
- avoid COLD milk and yogurt and AVOID junk food(NO burger , pizza) altogether
- mix few drops of lemon juice in warm water. Drink on empty stomach, early in the morning, to aid in bowel movement
- avoid beverages / alcohol/ soft drinks
- do some exercise (push-ups etc) early in the morning

hope the bowel movement would be normal.
any further questions are welcomed.

hope to answer your concern.

wish you good health.

regards,
Dr Tayyab Malik
