What Causes Severe Abdominal Gas And Bloating?
Hi. I ve been having a very loud stomach lately. when I go to the toilet, lots of gas and a jelly-type substance comes out. I feel like I m going to have loose stools, but sometimes nothing comes out but gas and clear liquid...sometimes I feel bloated, not wanting to eat. Am seeing a Dr. tomorrow afternoon about this.

Hi,
Your symptoms of abdominal gas and bloating can occur due to gastro-esophageal reflux or lactose intolerance or antibiotic induced diarrhoea. I would suggest you to take proton pump inhibitors like Rabeprazole once a day, half an hour before food. Probiotics can be taken thrice a day after food. Avoid unnecessary use of antibiotics. Anti-foaming agents like Simethicone can be taken to reduce abdominal gas and bloating.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Saranya Ramadoss, General & Family Physician
