What Causes Persistent Bloating In Lower Abdomen With Pressure In Head?
Hi, I am 36 year old male and i am having these problems. Well, i am having a constant bloat in my lower abdomen. I have to go to restroom twice daily. Even after that my lower abdomen feels bloated, like something is blocking. If i try harder, my whole head starts to ache a lot. One more thing is, whenever i masturbate, after 15 minutes, the bloating increases a lot, my head fells like its about to burst, and for 2 to 3 days i suffer from diarrohea(its not loose motions, but abnormal stool thats not solid or loose).

Hello,
As per my clinical experience, the persistent bloating with pressure in head is seemingly related to dysfunction of intestines with stress and anxiety induced headache. The headache after masturbation also seems related to stress and anxiety, as if you are feeling pleasure after pleasurable activity, headache is not a symptom of that.
My guidelines at present:
- Try to regularize your bowel movements with different maneuvers as
- More liquid intake
- High fiber diet with fruits, cereals, carbohydrates, pulses
- Avoid spices, non veg
- Do regular aerobics, swimming or other exercises of choice
- Control body weight
- Avoid smoking, alcohol or any of the recreational drugs (if using)
- Meditations and relaxation techniques
- Try to maintain regular sound sleep of 7 hours
- Bulk forming laxatives as Bran, Ispaghula husk or others
- Proton pump inhibitor as rabeprazole (20 mg) with sips of water on empty stomach
- Acetaminophen with tramadol hydrochloride for headache relief to be consumed after meals
Consult your doctor by appointment for further course of action and guidelines.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
