What Treatment Should Be Taken For Bloating And Constipation ?
Hello, I am looking for the name of a condition my mother was diagnosed with. She has constant bloating and constipation . Her doctor recommend that she take fibercon, align, and to avoid seeds. Her colonoscopy came back ok. She thinks the condition starts with, or sounds like, fibr of the colon. What could this be? Thanks!

Dagnosis is always a mystery till diagnosis is made. Your mother , probably has Dyspepsia . She will need a formulation containing Rabeprazole ( acid decreasing agent ) and a gastric movement enhancer like Domperidon. Rabemac DSR is one such formulation. Your local chemist may suggest some preparation similar to this. It needs to be taken once a day for one week. Spicy food and oily food needs to be avoided. Report back.

Your mother has flatulence dyspepsia. Due to weak peristalsis she has such problem. To enhance the peristalsis movement fiber diet is most. Drink plenty of water, avoid oilly spiecy food and take Nux vom 30 (a homoeopathic medicine) 2 drops daily at night.
