Chronic bloating years, I’ve ignored this for far too long
I (36M) have been dealing with worsening digestive issues over the past couple of years, mainly bloating and stomach discomfort (I’d describe it as a burning/“fiery” sensation at times).
I’m not the smartest guy when it come to medical stuff, and for a long time I chalked it up to drinking too much alcohol. About five months ago I stopped drinking completely. That did help with the burning pain, but the bloating has honestly only gotten worse since then.
Nowadays I get constant bloating that comes in waves. At times it’s so intense I can barely move comfortably.
I go to the bathroom quite often, but a lot of the time I’m just passing air. I usually get temporary relief afterward, but the bloating always returns.
I don’t often have diarrhea or constipation, its just crazy amounts of bloating.
Any ideas on the sort of solutions could I look into with my GP? Thank you.
