How to release gas in stomach?

12 doctors weighed in across 5 answers

Belch: The best way to release gas from your stomach is to belch. It is also important to try not to swallow air. You shouldn't drink with straws, out of bottles, avoid sodas, avoid eating too fast and washing food down with liquid. If you are speaking about intestinal gas you should avoid gas forming foods such as broccoli, beans, fiber, dried fruits, salads, etc.

Gas: Belching and passing gas rectally are the normal processes depending on where the gas is built up. If you have excessive gas please see your doctor. He/she will examine you and may prescribe something as simple as a probiotic. Peace and good health.

Focus on diet: Most people pass gas up to 20 times a day. Gas in the stomach often results from swallowing too much air while eating or drinking.Gas in the large intestines develops when normal bacteria breaks down certain types of undigested food. Many people, changing dietary habits is enough to alleviate gas and its accompanying symptoms.Keep a Food Diary. Avoid Spicy food & carb.Beverage, sugar free prod.

Simethicone: There are over the counter medications that may help reduce gas buildup. Products that contain simethicone like Gas-X or Alka-Seltzer Anti-Gas may relieve painful symptoms of too much gas in the stomach/intestines. Tips to avoid more gas buildup include taking time when eating and drinking, eating smaller meals more often, and avoiding fizzy beverages.

How do you know?: What evidence have you? Is this your assumption, or have you been to any diagnostic procedure? Symptoms????? Best strategy is to consult a gastroenterologist. Begin with a precise diagnosis. "Gas" is not a diagnosis.
