Abdominal distension is a common clinical symptom of the digestive system and one of the main symptoms in most patients with gastrointestinal disease.
Abdominal distension is a feeling of swelling or bulging in the abdomen, an increase in pressure or tension in the abdominal wall, and an increase in bulging and abdominal circumference.
If functional abdominal distension is caused by functional abdominal distension and organic diseases, it is mainly related to dietary factors, so there is no need to worry too much about it. In this case, we need to improve the gastrointestinal examination, including gastroscopy, abdominal CT and relevant laboratory tests to clarify the cause and treat the symptoms.
In conclusion, patients should pay attention to the duration and number of episodes of abdominal distension and the presence of concomitant symptoms before consulting a doctor, and combine them with relevant examinations to clarify the diagnosis and treatment. Before visiting the doctor, you should also explain to the doctor what methods you have done or what medications you have taken to relieve the symptoms of abdominal distension and whether these methods and medications have achieved relief, so that the doctor can make a diagnosis.
