I've been dealing with really frequent farts and burps over the past 6 months. After I eat, my belly gets bloated and it's super uncomfortable. I end up burping around 20 to 30 times and have about 40 to 50 farts, which is really annoying. I've noticed that when I eat batter-fried stuff, chicken, or hummus, it seems to get worse. What can I do to fix this issue?

To alleviate excessive gas, bloating, and discomfort, try avoiding trigger foods like batter-fried items, chicken, and hummus, and incorporate changes like eating smaller meals, chewing slowly, avoiding carbonated drinks, and staying hydrated, while considering over-the-counter remedies like simethicone, activated charcoal, or probiotics

I'm a 21-year-old male and recently saw my doctor for abdominal pain. He had me get an abdominal ultrasound, and while most things looked normal, it mentioned that there are gas-distended bowel loops in the lower abdomen. Is this something I should be worried about? My doctor gave me some medication called pansec and meftal spas. I'm really curious to know why this is happening and what I can do to make it go away. Can you help me understand this better?

I'm experiencing some weird stomach issues and I'm a bit concerned. I used to have a stomach ulcer, which is thankfully better now, but for the past few months, my stomach's been gurgling a lot. I also feel really full and get a ton of gas after eating. It's like I can actually feel the gas forming, and there's this constant growling sound in my stomach that only seems to go away when I have a full meal. It's at its worst when I'm hungry. On top of that, my stool has been green and soft most of the time. I used to take pantotab every morning for my ulcer, but I stopped because it was making me super drowsy. Any idea what's going on? I'm kinda worried.

Your symptoms of constant stomach gurgling, feeling full after eating, gas formation, and green, soft stools, especially after recovering from a stomach ulcer, may indicate issues like irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), small intestine bacterial overgrowth (SIBO), or gastroparesis, and the drowsiness you experienced from Pantoprazole (Pantotab) tablets may be a side effect, so it's essential to consult your gastroenterologist to discuss your symptoms,
