Suggest Medication For Severe Bloating And Pain Under The Stomach

Hello. For four days I have been experiencing severe bloating with pain in the upper stomach area (just under breastbone area) ... it almost feels like there is something lodged there. The bloating is so severe that I feel like I can't eat or drink ... which I haven't hardly done at all for 4 days (a couple of bananas, 1 pc toast and small of amount of soup). It also seems to be affected my ability to breath normal?

Hi,

As per your complain you have problem of severe bloating of stomach that may be because of indigestion or more fatty food intake or other reasons. Gastroesophageal reflux disease may cause abdominal bloating problem. Food intolerance may cause this type of symptoms. Intestinal infection may cause abdominal bloating problem.

Frequent chewing of chewing gum entrapment of air occurs. Simethicone drug can use for gas relief. Avoid gaseous foods and junk foods. Drink more water per day. Ginger juice is helpful in gas problem. Consult a gastroenterologist for further diagnosis. Detail history and physical examination give exact idea about problems.

I hope my guidance helpful to you. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Dr. Rachana Goswami
