Posted: 10/20/05 - 02:00 Post subject: How to stop these stomach (intestine) growls? |
|
|
Hi. I'm 27 year old male and recently I started to have problems with stomach or intestine growls.
First I didn’t pay too much attention on it because the growls were mild and didn’t represent any problem for me at all.
I thought it was cause by some specific type of food and that it will disappear by it self. But they didn’t, and even, with time, they were becoming mush stronger, and what’s more important- much louder.
It is causing me sometimes even short pain.
The thing that was confusing is that sometimes my stomach growls after a tone of food and sometimes when is empty so I can't figure out what is causing this!
Any ideas?

Well, it could be very difficult to tell what’s wrong with your stomach because there are a lot of things that could cause very similar symptoms. Some of them are constipation, gas cramps and diarrhea. Your stomach even growls when its empty and this is because it receives signals from your brain to begin digestion.
There is also one another condition called irritable bowel syndrome that could cause you that problems.
It is caused when hard stool or some tumor blocks the passage of gas through your bowel and that how it cases one balloon to appear filled with gas which is causing growls and pain to some people.
The bottom line is that you will never know what is causing you these problems until you contact some gastrologist.
Wish you luck!

Hi, believe me my stomach was growling too loud, it was heard in the entire room, such an embarrasing feeling.. I had visited a doctor, the first question he asked was "Do you excersice?", my answer was No.. My work itself is like that, I am a software engineer, and was leading a sedentory lifestyle...As a result I had belly stomach . Later I made my decision to join gym, to reduce those extra fat around my stomach... Believe me it made the difference, the important excersice is the bending excersice, that is lying down on a flat surface and lifting both the legs at 45%, within few days, the growling stopped completely... No medicine, no operation nothing... Everybody, every part of the body needs excersice |

Hello everyone I am currently 25 years old and these stomach noises have been causing me so many problems. I really started to notice my stomach noises when I was like 19 years old. Once I graduated from my university the stomach noises seem to have gotten worse. I hate having to do any kind of training, because I get soo scared that my stomach will start to make some type of noise. I actually had to resign from a government job, because the training was 4 months long and I had to spend 80% of my time in a quiet room. I was doing pretty good for the first 4 weeks, but then I got a tetaneous shot and a hepatitis shot and everything went down hill.
I will have to go through another training, which will be a week long, 8 hours a day. I wish I didn't have to do this training, but I guess I have no other alternative. I also want to get my masters, but I guess I will have to try to get it online. There are some schools like Boston University, Michigan State, Texas Tech, Florida State, Penn State and University of Houston that offer degrees online. I hope this helps for those who are in school and hate going to class. I am now trying to go to a career path that does not make me work in a quiet environment.
One thing that helped me a great deal was taking fiber pills (metamucil). My routine would start out like this, wake up and try to do #2, then take 2 fiber pills and have breakfast. I would like like 20 fiber pills with me, just incase I heard any noises. I would have lunch and then try to do #2 again and take 2 more fiber pills. I would also take water with me and also something to drink on that was carbonated. I think that if you flush food through your system, by using the restroom, then this may help with the stomach noises. It did for me until I got the darn tetaneous and hepatitus shot.
One other thing that I noticed helped a great deal was running or probably any other excercise. I remember one time I had to run 1.5 miles before lunch and I didn't eat anything, I just drank water. I showered and went to class and I was thinking that I was sure to have stomach noises. I was soo surprised that my stomach did not make one noise.
I went to go and see a doctor in another country (Mexico) since I don't have insurance right now. He checked me out and said that my heart beat is like off on the 11th beat or something like that. He said that it was nothing to worry about, but that this may be the reason for my stomach noises. He asked if I had been excercising lately and I said no. He asked if I had any chest pains and I said a couple times and he said that I should start to excercise everyday. He also gave me this medication, Creon and this other medication. I am taking them right now, but I don't know if they are really working, since my stomach has been feeling about the same. The doctor told me to stay away from processed foods, such as sausages and not to any spices (garlic, pepper, cumin and other spices) he also said not to eat any spicy foods. I am also lactose intollerant, so I don't drink any dairy products. I think I am also alergic to glutons, so I stay away from wheat, barly and oats.
One other thing that I have not done yet, but am thinking about is taking milk thistle to try to help my liver process foods. I don't want to do this yet, until I have finished my training. I don't want to experiment right now before I go to training.
Well good luck to everyone and I hope we can deal with our problem. It would be nice if we could all work for the same company and we didn't have to worry about our stomach noises.
PS: Stress is also something that causes this. I guess when you get stressed you let out some stomach acids and then that's when you hear the noises. Sometimes eating fresh fruits and veggies can also cause stomach noises for certain people. I agree with the person who said have protein. I have eggs in the morning and that seems to help. |

| man it came as a shock. i have been havin stomach noises for abt 2 years now. and these last few months have been the worse. i would sit in class and they'd sound off like a marching ban. i said to my self. my self said huh! i said u've got to do sumthin abt these noises. so i thought abt prunes and how they clean ur system out. so i bought a 7 oz box and ate half of it. i went to the bath room and did the do. i woke up the next day and my noises were almost completely gone. so try them they work and try a teaspoonof olve oil in the morning |
