Detailed Answer:
Hello

Thanks for the query

Bloated stomach is one of the commonest problem that patients face. Here is what you should do

1. Avoid gas forming food like nuts, raw salad, beans, milk, milk products and aerated drinks
2. Eat on time and at regular intervals. Do not skip meals
3. Avoid chewing gum as this leads to swallowing of air
4. Avoid smoking
5. Tab Pantoprazole with domperidone is a good tablet to reduce the bloating.
6. Tab Mosapride can be taken twice daily if the distention continues

I hope I was of help, if you have any further queries please get back to me
