Upper Abdominal Bloating

By: Neel Alfred Home | Health-and-Fitness | Alternative-Medicine


The main stream therapeutic approach to treating bloating focuses on reducing the volume of intestinal gas, increasing intestinal gas elimination or reducing its production. Some promising results have been obtained by the use of prokinetics, such as tegaserod and Prostigmine, and by the use of nonabsorbable antibiotics, such as rifaximin.

Bloating can result from excessive gas in the digestive system and a lack of sufficient quantities of digestive enzymes and bile acids required to rapidly break down food. Intestinal gas results from food fermentation and from swallowing air while eating. The bloating from intestinal gas is different from that which occurs in the colon.

Your workout should be up and down. Instead of pushing to the max for the whole workout you should work in intervals where you are going full force and then let up and relax and then get right back into full force. This type of interval training has proven to help your body more calories and more fat.

If this condition occurs more than once in a predisposed breed, the veterinarian might discuss methods to prevent bloat, such as feeding smaller meals or giving Reglan (metoclopramide) to encourage stomach emptying. Some veterinarians recommend, and some owners request, prophylactic surgery to anchor the stomach in place before the torsion occurs in dogs who have experienced one or more bouts of distention or in dogs whose close relatives have had GDV.

Constipation, Braxton-Hicks contractions (muscle contractions) or even just gas and bloating following abdominal pain could cause complacency. After all, these things are very normal and can even be caused by gastrointestinal problems! Harmless or harmful - wiser to visit the gynecologist.

Gastroparesis is a rather intimidating sounding name for a condition known as delayed gastric emptying. This is a disorder that causes the stomach to take too much time emptying its contents into the small intestine, and it occurs when the vagus nerve, which controls the speed at which food moves from the stomach into the intestinal tract, becomes damaged.

Every person burp after meal it is normal but people who belch frequently may be swallowing too much air and releasing it before the air enters the stomach. Continuing belching may also indicate an upper GI disorder, such as peptic ulcer disease.

An unusual phenomenon has been observed in some Celiac patients. Gallbladder type abdominal pain without gallstones and a "supranormal" gallbladder ejection fraction. Surgery relieves the gallbladder type pain and a diseased gallbladder is found. Radiology studies have been reported in the literature that shed light on this phenomenon though it's significance has been largely missed by the medical community.
