What Is Flatulence?
Reviewed: Dr. Gromatzky
7. Bloating
Bloating is another very common condition. We’ve all eaten too much sometimes and felt so full that we find it difficult to even move. Adding to the problem further is the fact that gases will be generated in our stomachs as food is processed. If this gas cannot escape, then our bowels will expand as a result.
This bloating can be quite uncomfortable, and it can make a person feel as though it is harder to move around. The symptom should pass eventually, however, as the gases will eventually make their way out of the body in one way or another. Medication is also available that can help to relieve the patient of the symptom.
