What Causes Gas Trouble And Stomach Bloating After Eating Junk Food?

Hi, My name is Shekhar Bhardwaj and I am 18 years old. I ve been facing some gas and bloating issues with my stomach lately. It started after I ate junk food about 20 days ago. I consulted a doctor and he gave me Pantoprazole tablets and an antacid(Digene) but the medicines have not helped. I don t have any abdominal pain. I pass stool regularly but the amount has reduced a little. My appetite is healthy and it has not reduced. My stomach seems heavy at times everyday and I can feel the discomfort of the gas. Please reply soon.

Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted your history of gas and bloating issues with with your stomach recently which started after you started eating junk food about 20 days ago. There are no other symptoms as you have noted and the Pantoprazole and antacid Digene has not helped you.
This means you have some intestinal bacterial imbalance.
I would advise you the following:
Get the stool tested.
Get blood tests and ultrasonography to.
Start Pre and probiotics, and antibiotics with metronidazole if you have stool tests indicating infection and you will be fine.
I find this answer helpful
