A member asked:

What if someone had an x-ray and the doctor says that there are lots of gasses in your stomach, what does this mean?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Nothing: It means nothing at all. At best, it's just a little constipation. As long as the gas is in the stomach & intestines and not outside of them.
