What should I do if I have a bloated stomach?

Bloating may be caused by improper diet, chronic gastritis, functional dyspepsia, etc. Treatment includes general treatment, medication, surgery, etc.,…
1. Improper diet: excessive intake of gas-producing foods (e.g. beans, carbonated beverages) can lead to accumulation of gas in the gastrointestinal tract, thus triggering symptoms of bloating. Generally, it can be relieved by adjusting the diet structure.
2. Chronic gastritis: commonly used drugs include acid inhibitors, such as omeprazole; gastrointestinal stimulants, such as domperidone; gastrointestinal mucosal protection drugs, such as magnesium aluminum carbonate.
3. Functional dyspepsia: the less severe symptoms can be relieved by adjusting the diet. For those with severe symptoms, they can take prokinetic drugs, such as penicillin; acid-suppressing drugs, such as esomeprazole; and neuromodulatory drugs, such as 5-hydroxytryptamine.
In addition to the above diseases, gallstones and intestinal obstruction can also cause the above symptoms. If the above symptoms persist or are accompanied by other symptoms, you should go to the hospital for treatment to identify the cause. All of the above medications should be used under the guidance of a doctor and avoid self-medication.
