What is the solution for my abdominal pain and bloating?

This Premium Q&A, reviewed and published, features a real conversation between an iCliniq user and a physician.

Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

For the last month, I have had abdominal distention, indigestion, and dyspepsia. I feel pain in the abdomen, bloating, nausea, and burping. The pain in the abdomen recurs after a few hours. It is more frequent during the daytime (mostly after taking the meals) and less during the night. I have made the following diet changes. I have dropped tea and citrus fruits (oranges) altogether. I am taking black grapes, ginger with sal,t and honey before sleeping.

Please suggest suitable remedies for the early and permanent cure of the ailment from the reports attached.

Thank you.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I have gone through your reports (attachment removed to protect patient identity), and most are normal. It seems you are suffering from colitis or gastritis.

  • Avoid junk food and fermented food. I suggest you take a good probiotic twice a day for 10 days with your doctor's advice.
  • Avoid spicy food, fermented food, alcohol, smoking, and heavy meals.
  • Do not stoop or lift heavy weights. Raise the head end of your bed.
  • If you are obese, then reduce your weight.
  • If you are under stress, then manage stress levels through meditation and exercise.
