When abdominal distension occurs, it is usually accompanied by other symptoms of gastrointestinal diseases, such as vomiting, constipation, etc. These symptoms can easily occur at the same time as abdominal distension. These are all caused by gastrointestinal diseases. When facing gastrointestinal diseases, it is best to use traditional Chinese medicine for treatment.

Generally speaking, patients with abdominal distension have a bloated abdomen due to gastrointestinal flatulence.

Abdominal distension due to small intestinal gas may be limited to the middle abdomen or the entire abdomen. Abdominal distension due to colonic gas may be limited to the lower abdomen or the left lower abdomen. When the pyloric obstruction occurs, the upper abdomen may have a gastric shape and peristaltic waves. When the intestine is obstructed, intestinal shapes and peristaltic waves can be seen. The bowel sounds may be hyperactive or weakened. Patients with peritonitis may have tenderness and muscle tension.
