If you have stomachache, you will feel better if you fart

Many people usually have stomach pain problems. Some people feel less stomach pain after drinking hot water or using a hot water bottle. Some people feel stomach pain when they are hungry and the pain is relieved after eating. Some people feel much more comfortable in the stomach after farting a few times. Stomach pain caused by intestinal gas can often be relieved by farting. Some people tend to fart when their stomachs are bloated. For bloating caused by indigestion, you can drink some tea made from tangerine peel.

1. Why does farting make you feel better when you have stomach pain?

1. Consider that the abdominal pain is caused by intestinal bloating. After the gas is discharged, the intestinal fullness will be relieved. Eat more vegetables, fruits and protein-rich foods in daily life. It is recommended to strengthen nutrition, maintain a happy mood and develop good living habits.

2. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that stomach pain is caused by obstruction of Qi, stagnation of food, loss of harmony and descending of the stomach, fullness and distension in the stomach, stagnation and pain, which turns into heat. The heat damages the stomach yin and causes obstruction of Qi circulation, and pain occurs when Qi is blocked. The treatment is with the Chinese medicine Lichang Tiaowei Anshen Decoction which nourishes the stomach and liver, clears away heat and dampness, regulates the intestines and stomach, and cures the stomach pain. It is recommended to supplement the vitamins and minerals needed by the human body on a regular basis to promote digestion, accelerate the body's metabolism, speed up the repair of damaged tissues, stabilize emotions, and reduce mental stress.

2. 4 small ways to help you quickly eliminate stomach bloating

1. Drinking tea made from tangerine peel is very simple. Just go to the supermarket or pharmacy to buy some tangerine peel, soak it in boiling water, and drink a little when your stomach is bloated. It will take effect after a while. The picture below is tangerine peel. I haven’t been making tea with it since I had bloating recently.

2. If you don’t have tangerine peel, using stomach-strengthening and digestion-promoting tablets will also be effective. If the condition is not very serious, you can take less. Don't take 3-4 tablets at once as the instructions say.

3. Pat the Wei Zhongwan point. Zhongwan point is located in the upper abdomen, on the anterior midline, 4 inches above the navel. That is, place your hand on the belly button, five fingers wide. The middle position on the top is Zhongwan point, which is generally where you feel bloated. A very simple method is to shoot wherever there is swelling. Use your palms to clap alternately with moderate force, and the point where your fingers clap should be the Zhongwan point. The palm of your hand is slightly empty, and the main striking part is placed on the front half of your fingers. The principle is to stimulate your Zhongwan point. I usually take pictures while standing or lying down, and the effect is pretty good. If you feel that patting is uncomfortable, use your palms to massage around the Zhongwan point instead.

4. If you have caught a cold, your stomach has been blown by cold wind or you have eaten spicy food and feel bloated, you can use moxibustion to quickly expel the cold. The main points for moxibustion are Zhongwan, Shenque, Guanyuan and Zusanli. As mentioned above, the Zhongwan point is the Shenque point, which is the belly button. The Guanyuan point is 3 inches below the belly button, which is the width of four horizontal fingers on your hand. Just place your hand horizontally and measure. (See the picture above)

Zusanli is also easy to find. It is about 4 cm on the diagonal outside the groove below the knee. Press the sore area with your hand.
