Bloating

Bloating


Bloating is a common problem, especially in women.

it is usually consists of distension of the lower abdomen, so that while the abdomen might be flat in the morning, by the end of the day it is distended and uncomfortable, often requiring a change of clothes to something looser.  It may or may not be accompanied by constipation.  The distension is often aggravated by high fibre foods which generate gas.  Women with the complain of bloating have a bowel that is easier to distend and this gives the appearance of containing more gas.
