Not eaten enough? And your body is trying to digest the food it normally gets but hasn't been given? So stomach acid builds up with nothing to do.. except inflate you like a spherical thing.

Possibly?

An enema works wonders in such circumstances.

Could well be. I found walking and massage really helped when I had bad trapped wind after an op. Must have walked a rut in the ward lino!

I think it is trapped wind I mostly get it in my shoulder, I've just made some peppermint tea as that's what I also have for that and I've walked around a bit, but its so painful

1 tablespoon of apple vinegar in glass water work, it don't test good but it helps after 5 minutes.

Are you sure it's not constipation? As you have hardly eaten

God I had trapped wind a few weeks ago it was like an orgasm when I finally farted

Gaviscon or rennies, but if it keeps happening you might need omeprazole. Before I had these I sometimes felt like someone was blowing a balloon up in my tum.

Shoulder is where abdo gasses collect, if you have been pumped with air for an op that's where people describe the pain. The things you are already doing such as Peppermint tea, walking, massage are the best things you can do. Hopefully it will all culminate in one huge, knicker splitting fart that will make you feel good and of course wake the neighbours who will phone the papers to report experiencing an earthquake

I had peppermint tea and walked and massaged my belly, its still there but just feels like a lead weight the intensity of it has gone so I'm going to make some more peppermint tea.
