A member asked:
Ive had abdominal bloat on lower right side for several years typically with a bulge that changes in size after flatulence or bowel movement. i dont drink enough water. could that be the problem? no abdominal pain or diarrhea.

Right side: Get checked for an abdominal hernia or diastasis recti. Taking simethicone after a meal should reduce intestinal gas formation. I wouldn't relate the amount of water intake to your symptoms.
