What Causes Abdominal Bloating?
Hi! Have continuous bloating 24/7 over the past several weeks - my waist circumference has really changed quickly. Tried changing my diet by eliminating gluten, dairy, eggs... but hasn t helped. I feel really full most of the time. Should I have this checked out? At first I just thought it had something to do with pre-menopausal symptoms, but seems to be more of a GI issue?

Hello,
Bloating of the abdomen without any digestive complaints (bad digestion, belching, constipation, gases) needs to be investigated to exclude water built up in the peritoneum.
An urgent check-up by gastroenterologist/physician followed by specific treatment is advised.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Dr. Vasudha Jayant Athavale
