Patient's question:
After meals, I feel bloated in my stomach, there's a sound coming from my stomach, and I keep burping, but after a while, passing gas makes it less bloated. What's going on? Is it just poor digestive function?Doctor's answer:
The reasons for stomach bloating are numerous, such as chronic gastritis, stomach and duodenal ulcers, cholecystitis, chronic enteritis, and neurosis, all of which can cause stomach bloating. If you are reluctant to have a gastroscopy, you can take medication such as Cisapride or Domperidone. Always maintain a relaxed mood, eat less spicy and irritating foods, and avoid carbonated drinks.Doctor's Advice: When patients face the harm of stomach bloating, we should actively undergo examinations and treatment. Do not avoid seeking medical attention. If the stomach bloating does not improve after treatment, it is important to promptly adjust the treatment plan.
