What should I do if I have bloated stomach and difficulty in defecation?

Patient's question:

Loss of appetite, easy stomach bloating, frequent urge to defecate but difficulty in bowel movement, and very heavy bad breath

Doctor's answer:

Hello! Your condition is that you have gastrointestinal dysfunction, and from the perspective of Traditional Chinese Medicine, it is a manifestation of damp-heat accumulation in the spleen and stomach. Damp-heat accumulation internally, stagnating in the spleen and stomach, can lead to poor appetite and a bad odor in the mouth, while unsatisfactory bowel movements are caused by damp-heat descending. For your condition, first, you should avoid spicy and greasy foods in your diet to prevent further damp-heat accumulation. Secondly, it is still recommended to use traditional Chinese medicine for regulation, and you can go back to the gastroenterology department of a traditional Chinese medicine hospital for a follow-up consultation.
