Patient's question:
I am 34 years old. Recently, for some reason, I have been feeling nauseous and wanting to vomit, with a dull pain in my stomach sometimes accompanied by symptoms of heartburn and acid reflux. After visiting the hospital and feeling better for a while, it started again. How can I handle stomach bloating?Doctor's answer:
When you feel bloated, keep some stomach medicine at home, such as Domperidone or Gaobita. When bloated, take one Domperidone, and you will feel much better quickly. However, having stomach medicine doesn’t mean you can eat whatever you want. We must take responsibility for our own bodies. Rub your abdomen more, especially the upper abdomen near the heart, in a clockwise direction, which helps with digestion. When bloated, drink less water. If your stomach is very bloated, remember the lesson and avoid overeating. It’s enough to eat until you are 70-80% full; don’t stuff yourself.
