A member asked:

My uncle suffering from cancer and now his stomach is often bulges? can it can be stopped from bulginess ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Possibly: You would need to find out the source of the abdominal bloating or bulginess. This could be due to tumor blocking intestine or other cause. Please talk with your doctor about what is causing it and see if anything (surgery, radiation therapy, or other procedure) can be done to help.
