What Causes Bloating And Pain In The Abdomen?

Greeting to you sir. I have swelling or bloating in the area under rib cage, mostly over the stomach area. This appears usually after eating a small amount of food, maybe without eating. There is a small amount of pain when I press the area over the stomach. In the morning the area is flat and begins bloat after being up for a about 20 mins. Mostly is just very uncomfortable and makes it difficult to bend over. Some days I feel normal and can order eat normally. I have tried different foods, cutting out bread or salad.

Hello,

I think you should consider doing further examination like a total blood count, biochemical blood analysis. This sounds a bit like food intolerance and a nutritionist needs to be consulted too.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Olgeta Xhufka
