QuestionMy stomach feels like it is bloated all the time. I have no pain, no hardness, nothing really going on except for the "fullness" it starts right under my breast feeling full. I have tried antacids but theres no gas or heartburn at all. I have cut down on the salt intake thinking that would help.There is a lot of growling & roaring sounds... Any suggestions? Thank you
Answerthere are many possibilities...
reflux.... try zantac 150 twice a day for a month
gallstones.... an ultrasound to check
a food allergy... does a specific food make it worse?
Irritable bowel syndrome... what we call it when we can't find an answer
Celiac sprue and other genetic digestive disorders
Chronic constipation and poor low fiber diets, too much alcohol, cigarettes all can cause symptoms like this.
Those are some of the more likely causes... it is hard to make this question concise because of all the possibilities and different evaluations for each one....
