Perhaps there are 2 symptoms, gas accumulation and constipation. Avoid gassy foods&beverages &?dairy products. Take simethicone 1/2 hour after meals & bedtime to prevent gas buildup. Drinking hot water moves gas along. To prevent constipation, drink lots of fluids & eat fruits&veggies or take metamucil. Regukar exercise helps. If not improved, try senokotS daily according to instructions

Bloating abdomen (abdominal distension) occurs in constipated people. You can take OTC laxative such as Magnesium citrate or Miralax for now but you should start diet and exercise for avoiding recurrence. Good hydration, eating a lot of high fiber foods and maintaining an active lifestyle are recommended.
