A member asked:
Does abdominal gases mean gases in digestive track only or there can be gases in other areas as well resulting in discomfort?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Abd gas: It can be inside GI tract but if it ruptures and gas escapes into abdomen you die quickly if not treated. So most likely just GI gas.
