Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I read your query.

As you mentioned, you have had a problem with bloating and incomplete bowel evacuation for some time. You also have abdominal pain that can be due to gas. To avoid this, follow the instructions mentioned below:

  1. I suggest you take Triphala Churna (Amlaki, Haritaki, Vibhitaki) for 10 days. Take two teaspoons of lukewarm water before sleeping. Do not take anything after taking the Triphala powder. It will help you to completely evacuate the bowel. Consult your specialist doctor, discuss with him or her, and take the medicines with their consent.
  2. I suggest you take some carom seeds and boil them in water and when the water remains half then drink the water. It will give you relief from the gas.
  3. In case of excessive pain or any other emergency, consult your physician. But, if the pain is severe and you have any other associated problems like loss of appetite, vomiting, or anything else then consult your physician immediately because it can have some other cause that needs to be ruled out.

Follow up in 10 days.

I hope you have understood my suggestions.
