Reasons why you feel bloating and stomach tightening

One of the most common reasons why your stomach is bloated or hard can be air you swallow or food products that create too much gas in the digestive system.

Often this is not a problem but other times it can be indicative of a more serious problem. These could be intestinal blockage or inflammatory bowel disease. For your comfort and well-being, a firm and bloated belly is not something you should ignore.

AgroWeb.org lists below some of the causes and how to get the help you need.

You feel bloated

You may notice that the level of bloating fluctuates throughout the day as the hours pass or based on what you are eating. Some things that can help are eating more slowly and avoiding chewing gum to reduce the amount of air you may swallow without realizing it.

Also, limiting carbonated drinks that cause stomach bloating.

You have a food intolerance

The most common intolerance associated with bloating is lactose intolerance. But other food intolerances, as well as some autoimmune diseases where eating gluten damages the small intestine or overgrows bacteria, can cause stomach bloating and hardening.

You may suffer from any digestive system disease

Ulcerative colitis and inflammatory bowel disease can be another cause. In this case, you may also notice other symptoms, such as abdominal pain, diarrhea, constipation or the presence of blood during stool. In these cases, it is suggested to visit your doctor.

It could be something else.

Having a hard, bloated stomach may have nothing to do with what you eat. It is possible that you may have a bowel obstruction, which affects the way stool moves through your digestive system.

If this is the case, you will usually also have other symptoms, such as vomiting or constipation. Liver disease and cysts (such as ovarian cysts) can also affect the way your stomach feels and looks.

If you are worried, make an appointment with your doctor and in the meantime keep a record of all the symptoms you are experiencing./ Agroweb
