Cronic stomach bloating condition
by Einna1207, Dec 04, 2008 03:32PM
I am a 16 year old girl about 100 lbs with week stomach musles because of this I have a cronic bloating problem. I never have pain just a adicomforting feeling that I am always aware that my stomach is there; fror about 2 years. I have to go lay down when my lower stomach bloats up.
This happens for about 15 min. about 4 or 5 if not more times a day. When it bloats while I am at school I have to go to the nurce; lay down, and ice my tummy until the swelling in my tummy below my bellybutton goes down about 15 min. and when the swelling goes down I apply heat for a few quick minutes to sooth the tummy. She also gives me an 8oz glass of powered milk which helps alot. This is very anoying! I do wear an abdomonial brace about 24/7 which really help and lowers the number of episodes that I get a day.
I tas thinking about appling a heating pad/patch for 24/7 to see if that helps.
The Dr. can't find much wrong and says their is not much that he can fo except to lay down when I have a bloating episode in my lower lummy until the swelling goes down. He also recomonded physical therapy to strenthen my weak stomach mussles.
When I have a bloating episode should I apply heat or ice or both?
Is there anything else I can do to help my poor tummy? Should I get a heathing pad/ patch and wear it 24/7 to see if that helps?
