i have been experiencing bloating and chronic belching over the past months. i hear the sound of gases in my stomach and pressure in my flanks. of late i feel severe back and flank pains radiating up when i sneeze. possible causes pls?

Accepted Answer

: Don't force yourself to belch as it only leads to air swallowing &amp; becomes a vicious cycle. Gas is properly passed down &amp; out the rectum. Avoid gassy foods &amp; gassy beverages. Drinking hot water breaks down gas. Taking simethicone 1/2 hour after a meal prevents gas buildup. Determine if you have lactose intolerance caused by dairy products or gluten intolerance from wheat products.

Fiber and water: You may take a fiber laxative like Metamucil and drink enough water daily so that your urine is colorless. For the long term you may try to increase your intake of fiber foods. Consult this site for fiber foods.

Question 5

what is the causes of chronic nausea, burping, bloating, and gurgling for 2 years?

Accepted Answer

Could be ulcer: Could be ulcer or chronic reflux.  See your doctor.

Question 6

had an egd, hida scan, and abd ultrasound.  could gallbladder dysfunction truly be the root cause of my chronic burping, abd pain, pressure in my side?

Accepted Answer

Don't know: What are the results of all the tests? This is best to be asked to the doctor who ordered the tests. If you do have a low gallbladder function, then sometimes gallbladder surgery relieves the problems. About 80% of patients get better & 20% do not improve with surgery.

Question 7

i got a hida scan of my gallbladder done which reported anef of 12%. the abd ultrasound reported no gallstones. is the chronic burping and pressure (poking) under my right rib cage caused by the ef?

Accepted Answer

It May Be: A small subset of people have gallbladder dysfunction in the absence of gallstones, called chronic acalculous cholecystitis. The symptoms are identical to those caused by stones--biliary colic. The diagnosis is established by a reduced gallbladder ejection fraction, as measured by a cck-hida scan.  However, this test has a 25% false-positive rate, meaning we cannot rely on this test alone.

Question 8

chronic right low back pain, gas, right belly pain and hardness, burping gas and sometimes food, sciatica type right leg pain, anal swelling.cause?

Accepted Answer

Multiple problems: sounds too many things . will need proper history and examination. please see your doctor

Question 9

what are the causes of belching?

Accepted Answer

Swallowing air: Belching is merely the venting of gas from the stomach. As the stomach is relatively sterile, nearly all the gas in the stomach is from swallowed air. Drinking sodas, drinking from straws or narrow mouthed bottles, washing food down with liquids, and eating quickly can all cause excessive air swallowing or aerophagia.

Question 10

what caused my belching for two days?

Accepted Answer

Burping issues: Involuntary belching after a meal is normal, caused by release of swallowed gas after distension of the stomach with food. Magenblase syndrome is postprandial epigastric fullness &amp;bloating, relieved by belching.Aerophagia (accumulation of gas due to air swallowing) is common with anxiety, hypersalivation from gum chewing, smoking, drinking, oral irritation. In some, belching can become habitual.
