What Causes Lower Abdominal Bloating?

default
Posted on Mon, 24 Apr 2017
Question: hello doctor,
I have been experiencing bloating around my lower abdomen around the belly button for a month now. I visited gastroenterologist and he took thyroid and HB which had normal values. He prescribed cintodac medicine every morning before food for 10 days. its 5th day now and bloating issues reduced. Also at the same time, I experienced sharp pains after urinating. Met urologist for the same. The urine test turned out to be normal and he suggested combiflam as there was no infection. The pain gradually reduced. But I am sensing weird sharp pains near my groin area especially after passing stools in the morning. The uneasiness persist for an hour after which it goes off. can you please suggest any medication for this?

Brief Answer:
Try home remedies.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for your query.

You are having symptoms of Irritable Bowel Syndrome(IBS). It can be due to various causes like certain food, stress, hormones, other diseases like intestinal infections.

You can try some home remedies like:
- deep breathing exercises, physical exercises like walking/jogging
- Rich fiber diet (spinach, cucumber, carrot, banana, apple etc).
- Plenty of fluids.
- Eating at regular times.

Symptoms of uneasiness after passing stools can be due to constipation leading to hemorrhoids(piles) also. The above home remedies will help hemorrhoids too. You can also take syp. dulcolax (stool softener) 10 ml at night after dinner for 1 week. You can continue cintodac as prescribed.

In case your symptoms persists or worsens it is best to visit your physician for further treatment.

I hope this answered your query.
