Is it true that touching your belly often will make it bigger?

Frequent touching of the stomach to cause the stomach to become larger is not credible, there is no clear scientific basis for support. The causes of tummy enlargement can be divided into: physiological, such as pregnant women, overeating, etc.; pathological, such as abdominal tumors, gastric cancer, liver tumors, obesity and so on.
1. Physiological: pregnant women, with the growth of the fetus, the abdomen will gradually increase, with the birth of the fetus, generally can return to normal. Overeating, irregular diet, etc., lead to a large amount of fat accumulation in the abdomen, weight gain, and the stomach will also increase in size.
2. Pathological: abdominal tumors, such as stomach cancer, liver tumor, etc., with the growth of the tumor, the stomach will gradually increase in size, and the decline in digestion and absorption function will also aggravate the enlargement of the abdomen. Obesity, which is a common metabolic disease, is manifested by protruding abdomen, fear of heat, anxiety, etc. If the belly becomes bigger due to disease, it will be more difficult for the patient to get rid of it.
If the belly becomes bigger as a result of the disease, you should consult the doctor in time to clarify the diagnosis and follow the doctor’s instructions for treatment.
