Suffer From Gas Problems. Due To Stomach Infection? Have Anxiety
I have a tummy bug that my family has had. I am 57 and had 5 kids. I sometimes songwriter sensations with these tummy bugs t and feel bewildered by the sensation. I wondered if gas can be felt as a "punch" but not painfuul, and last a few seconds. I have a clean bill of health although I struggle with some anxiety over my body seeming to be a stranger to me as I age with weird little quirks. Instead of vomiting with a bug my stomach gets gassy and jumps around. Is this normal?

hi, if have taken antibiotics for the infection in the recent past, take some probiotics, it will help. if not taken antibiotics, take one course of antibiotics and probiotics at the same time. it couldbe due to irritable bowel syndrome also, as you said you have anxiety. please see your psychiatrist for this. all the best.
