My condition has been three or four years. I always have a little abdominal distension, bowel ringing, causing waist distension, and pulling water, sometimes pulling foam. I have taken a lot of medicine and health supplements, but they are not working. My stomach has always been poor, which leads to poor eating and sleeping. I feel drowsy every day. I don't know where the problem lies?
Expert response: Traditional Chinese medicine believes that bloating and intestinal sounds are often caused by spleen and stomach dysfunction and qi stagnation. When food is not digested in a timely manner, it will ferment abnormally in the intestines, producing waste gas that cannot be discharged in a timely manner, leading to bowel sounds. Excessive exhaust gas accumulates in the gastrointestinal tract, leading to bloating. Long term bloating and bowel sounds should be mainly treated with methods such as tonifying qi and strengthening the spleen, harmonizing the stomach with dampness, warming the kidneys and strengthening the spleen.
People with bloating and bowel sounds are usually accompanied by mental health issues. Excluding other intestinal diseases, Western medicine believes that bowel sounds are often caused by a decrease in gut microbiota. Supplementing probiotics may have some improvement, but the colonization effect of probiotics in the intestine is not very good. It is more ideal to take some microecological preparations - Zangling Water Sugar. After taking Zangling Water Sugar, beneficial bacteria will proliferate at a hundred fold rate. The strength of beneficial bacteria will inhibit and eliminate harmful bacteria, especially the activity of gas producing bacteria. Regular use of Zangling Water Sugar has a particularly good effect on bloating and bowel sounds.
The weakness of the spleen and stomach is likely to lead to abdominal distention and bowel ringing, which is mainly manifested by loose stools or a desire to go to the toilet after eating, including pulling clean water or foam stool, and is mild and sometimes severe in repeated attacks. These people usually have a pale complexion and are mentally exhausted.
Long term bloating and intestinal ringing require eating more vegetarian and coarse fiber foods, such as celery, mushrooms, etc., to improve intestinal function. Avoid spicy, fried, smoked, and grilled foods. After meals and before bedtime, rub your hands and massage clockwise around your navel. In addition, adjusting one's mental state is particularly important. Being optimistic and cheerful can help restore gastrointestinal function, and it is also necessary to participate in outdoor activities and exercise actively.
