Inflammation of the intestine

Bloating is a pathological condition, which is characterized by the accumulation in the intestine of gases in large quantities. This condition is often accompanied by pain in the abdomen, rumbling. Inflammation can be caused by improper diet, the ingestion of a large amount of air into the stomach during eating, chronic diseases of the digestive system. It is necessary to correct the lack of enzymes of the pancreas, to take the medicines recommended by the doctor. Products that cause enhanced gas formation are those that contain a large amount of fiber - legumes, cabbage, black bread, apples. These foods increase the activity of intestinal bacteria that break down undigested food residues in the intestine. From this, gases are released. Therefore, a diet with bowel swelling should also be observed.

Speaking figuratively, our digestive system can be presented in the form of a tube that begins with the mouth and ends with the anal opening. The content of gases in the intestine, along with the liquid and solid, is the norm. The thing is in the volume of gases - they should not be more than 300 milliliters. Gases appear in the intestines, when air enters the stomach during swallowing, gases - the product of the vital activity of the intestinal microflora, in addition - they get out of the blood.

Dysbacteriosis is the cause of bowel swelling in the colon. Alien microbes appear in the intestine, when the immunity and protective capabilities of the body decrease. Such microbes use their methods of digesting food - fermentation and decay. These processes lead to increased gas formation. If the pancreas does not produce enough enzymes for digestion, then the amount of undigested food entering the intestine grows.

Inflammation can occur due to malfunctions in the motor function of the intestine. In other words, the movements of the intestine are not coordinated, although there are no anatomical diseases in humans. At the same time, abdominal pain can be felt, diarrhea or constipation may occur.

Nutrition with bloating should be corrected. If the cause of the ailment is the ingress of a large amount of air into the oral cavity during a meal, it is worth noting smoking, carbonated drinks, chewing gum. If the cause of malnutrition, you must follow a diet, excluding from the diet rich in coarse fiber products. In addition, it is recommended to eat small portions up to six times a day. Do not rush while eating and chew your food well.

If the swelling of the intestines is caused by the consequences of a lack of enzymes produced by the pancreas, pancreotitis - the attending physician should prescribe medications to help you fill the lack of enzymes.

One way or another, thoroughly chew food should always be. So slices of food are easier to digest. Well, if you have the opportunity to find out which of your products your body is taking hard. For example, wheat is often a source of gas formation. Try to exclude it from the diet for one to two weeks, replacing other cereals - rye, rice, oats. Watch for changes in the body, if they will. If you notice that swelling of the intestine has become less pronounced, then use less wheat for several months. Take medications containing the necessary enzymes. Many of these medicines and food additives are made on the basis of papaya and pineapple, so eating these fruits in fresh form is also very useful.

If adjusting the diet and adherence to the recommendations given in this article does not help to get rid of the ailment, then you need to see a doctor. Perhaps you need to undergo a test to determine the course of treatment.
