Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

My stomach has been bloating every day, whether I eat or not. It is tight and gives me an uncomfortable feeling. I have no appetite to eat throughout the day. My poop is like the shape of a snake. I underwent a stomach X-ray, and it showed no blockage. The blood test reports were also normal.

Kindly help.

Thank you.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Your X-ray is normal as per history, so no intestinal obstruction is present.

We need to rule out the following for bloating:

  1. Excess fatty food intake.
  2. Eating too fast.
  3. Smoking.
  4. Anxiety issues.
  5. Irritable bowel syndrome.
  6. Celiac disease.
  7. Taking excess carbonated drink.

My advice:

  1. Avoid smoking and stress if present.
  2. Take a fiber-rich diet.
  3. Drink more water.
  4. Avoid a sedentary lifestyle.
  5. Drink ginger tea as it is beneficial.
  6. For celiac disease, anti-endomysial or anti-tissue transglutaminase antibodies can be investigated.

I hope this helps.

Thank you.
