IvorBiggun2 Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 Omeprazol. Available over the counter. Quote What is Omeprazol used for? It's widely used to treat indigestion and heartburn, and acid reflux. It's also taken to prevent and treat stomach ulcers. Omeprazole is a type of medicine called a proton pump inhibitor (PPI). Proton pumps are enzymes in the lining of your stomach that help it make acid to digest food. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there possibly somewhere a doctor out there who examines what is going on and treats you accordingly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheryl Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 @DaveBart Are you constipated? If not how do you know the pain is from "trapped wind"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the reason is really "trapped wind" the treatment is not so much omeprazol but simethicone (eg Air-X). But if the pain is really bad the reason has to be determined (in Thailand usually by x-ray, maybe further diagnostics). So it is necessary to see a doctor.

worgeordie Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 Trapped wind , buy a bottle of pepsi or other carbonated drink , thats what I do when I have wind, regards worgeordie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mstevens Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 (edited) If it is trapped gas, consider taking a couple of activated charcoal tablets which works well for trapped gas. Just make sure not to take them within 2 hours (before OR after) eating food or taking medicine. Activated charcoal is cheap, effective and widely available.

ozimoron Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 1 hour ago, DaveBart said: Thank you for all your replies,X ray shows nothing Get investigated for this. It happened tome while in Thailand. A doctor failed to diagnose it. I returned to Australia where it was diagnosed quickly with an ultrasound. Life threatening. My symptoms were constant abdominal pain, inability to fart or defecate. Inability to eat. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK534157/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheryl Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 An inaporopriate/nonsensical post has been temoved. Evidentally OP has seen a doctor. Xray shows no trapped air. If the pain continues hopefully other investigations will find the cause Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
