Patient's question:
The stomach is getting bigger (not the appetite is getting bigger). The area of the stomach looks like being pregnant. Nausea (married), bloated, heavy, always feels like there's something inside. It's been about a year. At the beginning, it wasn't this severe. How to treat stomach bloating and abdominal distension?Doctor's answer:
Abdominal pain is a common digestive system symptom, with the main causes including gastrointestinal bloating, ascites caused by various reasons, abdominal tumors, etc. In normal people, the gastrointestinal tract can contain a very small amount of gas, approximately 150 milliliters. When excessive air is swallowed into the stomach or due to poor digestion and absorption function, the gastrointestinal tract produces too much gas. If the gas in the intestines cannot be expelled from the body through the anus, it can lead to abdominal pain. Medications such as Domperidone and Lactic Acid Bacteria Tablets can be taken. Pay attention to eating fresh and easily digestible foods. Severe stomach bloating requires timely symptomatic treatment for the patient, while also paying attention to dietary issues to avoid spicy and irritating foods that may worsen the condition.
