Experiencing bloating due to trapped gas. is the trapped gas a symptom of the hiatus hernia?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possible: But air/ gas can be in the stomach, small intestine, or colon. Some gas is generated by bacteria as well. Some reasons digestion acid, etc generates gas. Swallowed air is also a component. Relief with antacids, absorbents like mylicon etc may give a hint.
