What Causes Distended Stomach And Weight Gain?
Hi ... I am very bloated above the belly button area and it becomes very hard at times and uncomfortable. I am 40 years old and have recently gained a lot of weight. I get dull pains in that area too and its been like this for over a year - What could it be and should I be worried?
