Excessive Gas & Bloating? Get Fast Relief from Our Experts
Hello Doctor,
I've been experiencing excessive gas and bloating in my stomach lately. It feels uncomfortable, and sometimes it's quite painful. What could be causing this, and how can I manage it?
Hello,
Thank you for reaching out to Dr. Galen. Please find the below response to your query.
Excessive gas can be caused by several factors. A change in lifestyle, such as eating more processed foods, stress, or lack of exercise, can contribute to digestive issues. Additionally, indigestion or a condition like Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO) can lead to increased gas production and abdominal distension. It’s important to identify the underlying cause, so I would recommend reviewing your diet and physical activity. If the symptoms persist, a consultation for a thorough evaluation may be necessary. Managing stress and improving digestion through dietary changes or probiotics may help as well.
Thanks
