Abdominal distension may be caused by reasons such as indigestion, gastroenteritis, and chronic atrophic colitis.

1. Indigestion

Abdominal distension may be caused by the long-term consumption of indigestible foods by the patient, leading to poor digestion in the stomach. Appropriate exercise and eating more easily digestible foods can alleviate the adverse symptoms.

2. Gastroenteritis

Abdominal distension may be caused by gastrointestinal inflammation, leading to symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhea, and lack of energy. Improving abnormal diet can alleviate the symptoms, or consult a doctor for medication such as aspirin enteric-coated tablets, amoxicillin capsules, and erythromycin sodium injection.

3. Chronic atrophic colitis

Abdominal distension may also be due to chronic atrophic colitis, and it is necessary to consult a regular gastroenterology hospital for a check-up. Under the guidance of a doctor, medication adjustments such as omeprazole enteric-coated capsules, citric acid mosapride tablets, domperidone tablets, etc., can help alleviate the symptoms.

In addition to the above relatively common reasons, it may also be due to organic diseases, and specific checks and targeted treatments should be carried out at a hospital.
