Common Questions and Answers about Stomach gas otc

gas

Avatar f tn t aware that laying on their right side can cause gas to build up in your colon and form a gas bubble. The way the colon is shaped and with the gas rising upward, when laying on the right side it gets trapped in the ascending and transverse sections of the colon and is not as easily expelled as it is when laying on the left side. I recommend trying some OTC treatments like beano, gas X, prilosec, prevacid, Mylanta, mylox etc. for a few days.

Avatar n tn Hi I have pain behind my breastbone and slightly to the left side under my ribs, with excess gas and bloating to my stomach. I have also have heartburn occasionally. This has got progressively worse in the past year since having an endoscopy which found nothing untoward other than inflammation due to excess stomach acid.
Avatar f tn Look for medications (OTC) that you take before eating to prevent the gas, or any medication that says it breaks up gas in the intestine, Phazyme is one. There are medications your doctor can prescribe for this as well. Take care!

4798447 tn?1359319344 I have been having stabbing pains that are in the center of my back and my front right below the rib cage. Sometimes it is at a level 7 and 8. I have been to the ER, after my wife found me crying from the pain, they did a CT which showed my gallbladder slightly enlarged, blood work showed elevated liver. Since they didn't see anything major on the CT or my lab work I was told it was "gas" or I was coming down with a stomach virus.
Avatar n tn Since the last treatment, I have been experiencing constant, excessive gas that bubbles up through my mouth. It feels like the gas is trapped in my esophagus and is being released constantly through a hole in the esphagus. I have to make a gross burp every two or three minutes to release the gas. I saw a general practitioner about it, but she referred me to a gastriontologist.
634567 tn?1222655959 Well I thought it would go down but it didnt the pressure was killing me I started to throw up and couldnt keep anything down, couldnt go to the bathroom(it felt like gas and bowel was trapped). Well, I did something I went to a stomach specialist and he order a CTscan which came back showing that I had a thicking of the bowel wall so he did a colonoscopy and then came back and said he did not see anything and it is probably just gas...AND DID NOTHING!!
Avatar f tn I did spinal surgery (removal of tumors om the T-12 and L-1) four weeks ago, and my stomach had been bloated with pain after any meal ever since. The pain just goes with OTC meds and some gas, but my stomach remains bloated.

Avatar n tn I've been experiencing constipation, gas, bloating, dizzy spells, pain from my bladder to my shoulderblades at times. I get a strange bubbly feeling on the right side under my ribs when I eat. If I eat cheese or something greasy I bloat up like I'm pregnant and have terrible gas that lasts hours. My Dr suspected gall stones and ran tests. The ultrasound showed my gallbladder, liver, spleen, pancrease all look good.
Avatar n tn •If you have sulfur burps but NOT sulfur gas (flatulence) the cause is probably in your stomach (H. pylori infection, gastroparesis). If you suffer from both sulfur burps and gas or only sulfur gas you may have small intestinal or gallbladder disorder. •Pepto Bismol (bismuth subsalicylate), a popular antidiarrheal drug, binds hydrogen sulfide and removes it from the gastrointestinal tract thus reducing sulfur burps and gas.
Avatar f tn When I eat simething I get more gas in stomach which makes me feel breathless and uneasy.I am afraid of doing breakfast as I have acidity and anxiety I will be unable to give my exam easliy.I am taking medicine for allergic rhinitis and for anxiety a psychiatrist has prescribed me medicines but I will take them after exams as I have read on internet they take time to adjust and symptoms can be worst in the beginning.I have three exams left and the last one is on 24/04/2013.
2001101 tn?1331494740 I ve a same problem but weneva it's blocked gas it feel like pressure around my heart area n my left side hurts alot
Avatar f tn everytime i lower my dose my stomach gets all screwed up i think its extreme gas pressure or something feels like a stabbing pain, i know this sounds retarded but GasX may help, ive tried every OTC and prescription for acid reflux and stomach pain and nothing works, the pain comes and goes, worst in the morning, sorry i couldnt help more
Avatar f tn Peptic ulcer pain is usually a burning pain. They commonly occur in the stomach and duodenum. Stomach ulcers cause pain on eating and duodenal ulcers cause pain on fasting (2-3 hrs after eating). Peptic ulcers are eroded areas in the lining of the digestive tract usually in the stomach and duodenum. The two common causes for this are: infection with helicobacter pylori and use of nonsteroidal anti inflammatory medications (NSAID).
Avatar f tn ) Go buy some extra strength GAS EX. I swear by that stuff, it really helps. No other OTC medicine IVe seen for "stomach troubles" has the stuff in it that helps gas that I know of. A lot of people mistaken Pepto, Mylanta and the likes for helping with pain like that but they dont have the anti-gas agent in it. Hope you feel better soon. PS if the pain doesnt get better in a day or two, or gets severely worse, go to the Dr.
Avatar n tn Good morning, This may sound silly, any may not even work for you depending on your condition, but when I am having a problem with gas in my stomach after a meal that I can't seem to get rid of I will usually crack open a can of sprite. I don't even need to drink the full can, just a few sips and I can usually get a good belch. As far as gas from the other end, I take some laxatives every day because of some meds that I take, so I don't seem to have a problem with that!
Avatar f tn Within a couple minutes of eating, I get painful indigestion, swallowing becomes uncomfortable, my stomach gets sore and really bloated, and I get gas pains that radiate from my tummy up into my ribs, and my diaphragm and chest and upper back get really sore so that it's very hard to sit down and finish my food. This happens when I've barely gotten a chance to eat anything, why would it happen that fast and how can I prevent this from happening?
414018 tn?1268611672 t believe any amount of antacids/anti-gas otc are going to help. You might want to post your question to the cancer export forum for a medical opinion. A slightly invasive drain-off may be in store. Ask a medical professional in the know about such things. Good luck. My gyn-oncologist removed 6 liters from my abnominal cavity when he did my debulking surgery. Now that I am relapsing, I can feel the asites building up again, so I know how you feel.
