What Causes Abdominal Pain, Bloating And Constipation In A 23-year-old?

Hi i Have discomfort in my stomach. I’m always bloated even before I eat and as soon as I wake up it happens. I am unable to pass gas, but I do burp occasionally. I’m 23 years old and all doctors tell me is I’m just fat and need to lose weight for my stomach to decrease in size, yet I’ve been playing sports my entire life and I try to eat as good as possible. I take probiotics and drink a lot of water. My stomach feels like a ballon. I also have troubles going to the bathroom. I’ve gotten ultrasounds done and I’ve ended up at hosipitala because the gas pain in my stomach is so painful sometimes I can’t take it, but when I end up going to the hospital, they do nothing and I wasted 6 hours being there.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

* As far as my clinical experience is concerned, the condition seems to be related to intestine motility, digestive enzymes deficiency or other conditions which may not be detectable with ultrasound.

* In our clinic, I recommend a thorough work up with CT scan of abdomen and pelvis to treat further.

Do give me further chance to assist in future.
Thank you.
