Welcome to Healthcaremagic
Greetings of the day
Dear Ms
The cause of symptoms is likely to be due to gas dyspepsia which usually results from following factors
1. Decreased intake of water
2. Low fibre diet
3. Excessive intake of food stuffs causing gas formation.
I would suggest you the following
1. Ensure good intake of water : 2 to 3 liter a day
2. High fiber diet : 2 servings of vegetable salad and 2 servings of fruits especially citrus fruit will ensure adequate intake of fiber in diet
3. Anti flatulent agent : Liquid antacid containing defoaming agent like Simethicone which is available as over the counter medication will be helpful.
4. Rectal suppository : Bisacodyl rectal suppository which is available as over the counter medication, inserted once will help in evacuation of colonic contents and gas
Do consult your physician if the symptoms still persist.
Wishing you and your family a very happy and healthy life.
Take care
Best regards
