Accepted Answer

Excess gas, hiatal hernia, gastroparesis, ulcers, food allergies...

Question 2

Have been experiencing gas, bloating and extreme pain in the upper right abdomen for the last month. i'm now getting pain on left side after eating?

Accepted Answer

This complaint can possibly be associated with up to 46 different conditions. Therefore it would need to be thoroughly worked up by your primary physician and if preliminary workup is negative then he would probably consult with a gastroenterologist. The workup could be from days to weeks to sort out. Make an appointment with your doctor and be ready to provide as much detail as possible.

Question 3

Pinching pain in upper abdomen, moves between l & r side, worse after eating. constant feeling of fullness, increased gas & bloating, early satiety. ?

Accepted Answer

It might be a sign of gallstones. You could also be having symptoms from a gastric ulcer. I suggest you go see your GP and have an exam, labs and Ultrasound of the abdomen.

Question 4

Can constipation cause upper gastric pain (pressure/stabbing) mainly on the right side? also gas & bloating after eating. passing gas with eating fennel.gallbladder already removed. i also have gerd.

Accepted Answer

Constipation can cause that pain and pressure, bloating and passing gas that you describe. Try eating a lot of fruits and veggies for roughage and drinking 64 ounces of water. If that does not work natural calm works probably the best that I have found. It has magnesium in it and you can start with a teasoon and work up to the amount that works for you and it will keep you regular and feeling good.

Question 5

Best remedy for gas/ bloating?

Accepted Answer

Irritable bowel syndrome (ibs) is associated w/ abdominal discomfort, altered /alternating stool pattern, accompanying nausea, bloating, gassiness. Often improved by stooling, ibs is defined by changes in perception of gut distension, motility, sensation. Diet & emotional stress play significant roles. Need however to rule out first inflammation, ischemia, dysmotility & infection before treatment.

Question 6

What might lead to gas, bloating, and constipation?

Accepted Answer

This is constipation! a hi fiber diet, 20-25 grams of fiber per day, drink 80-`100 ounces of non caffeinated, non alcoholic fluids daily and increase your fluids if you do strenuous work or exercise. Do not use harsh laxatives.
Excess fiber in the face if inadequate fluids will cause bloating and constipation.

Question 7

What foods cause gas, bloating, or constipation?

Accepted Answer

most commonly certain fruits and veggies. also sugar supplements (Splenda).
Look for the "FODMAP" diet for specifics.

Question 8

For the past 3 days i've had gas, bloating and pain in my lower back and stomach.  i've tried a few medications to no avail.  any suggestions?

Accepted Answer

This could be from constipation. Are you staying well hydrated?  Be sure to eat slowly - it takes about 20 minutes for your stomach to catch up to your satiety level. Be careful about gas-inducing foods (such as beans, cabbage, cauliflower, broccoli, prunes, apricots, sweeteners, dairy, whole grains). If you've already tried a bunch of OTC medicines, it is best to see your doctor. Best wishes!

Question 9

Will someone please do a study to find out if taking caraway seed for gas/bloating several times a day will cause a false positive for opiates?

Accepted Answer

Poppy seeds taken in quantity can give you a false positive for opiates. It's possible that caraway seeds can do the same thing.

Question 10

Hi , i am 35 y.o men . for the 4 last day i've had constipation and my urine is much darker color . i feel weaker , and has problem with gas bloating.

Accepted Answer

Proper hydration is critical, providing no other medical issues. Urine color may be used with the goal as being clear to light yellow. That will definitely help with the constipation also. If, in spite of increasing your water intake, you still experience a tendency to constipation please mention it to your doctor, since further work up might be needed.
