Gurgling in the abdomen usually means that the bowel sounds are more active, which may be caused by the following conditions: First, it may be caused by hunger, such as stomach acid or intestinal fluid stimulating the mucous membrane. Usually the symptoms can be relieved immediately by drinking warm water or eating some food; secondly, it may be caused by the stimulation of chronic inflammation of the intestine, which leads to more active peristalsis and thus the gurgling sound; thirdly, it may be caused by constipation, generally if the stool is hard and difficult to discharge, the intestine will reactively appear active peristalsis, thus stimulating the discharge of stool, and this sound will also appear.
