for the past month my stomach has been grumbling very loud & hard It vibrates thru my whole body it happens every 5 minutes or so its so loud you can hear it over the T.v. if someone is sitting next to me they can feel the vibration from me...I dont know what to do...any help would be appreciated Ima 36 year old female dont know if that matters
Hi, A stomach rumble, also known as a bowel sound or peristaltic sound, is a rumbling, growling or gurgling noise produced by movement of the contents of the gastro-intestinal tract as they are propelled through the small intestine by a series of muscle contractions called peristalsis.However a hyper active bowel can be a indicator of trauma,an infection that causes problems with the nerves in the intestines,a hernia, which is when part of an organ pushes through a weak area of the stomach muscle,a blood clot reduced blood potassium, or hypokalemia , tumor or a blockage of the bowels, or intestinal obstruction. Initially i would suggest you to go for ultrasound abdomen and start taking any over counter probiotic daily. Follow up with reports.
