what triggers it and how can I cure it?
Abdominal bloating occurs when the gastrointestinal (GI) tract is filled with air or gas. Most people describe bloating as feeling full, tight, or swollen in the abdomen. Your abdomen may also be swollen (distended), hard, and painful. Bloating is often accompanied by pain, excessive gas (flatulence), frequent burping or belching.
.
Gas is the most common cause of bloating, especially after eating. Gas builds up in the digestive tract when undigested food gets broken down or when you swallow air. Everyone swallows air when they eat or drink. But some people can swallow more than others, especially if they are: eating or drinking too fast, chewing gum, smoking, wearing loose dentures. Burping and flatulence are two ways swallowed air leaves the body. Delayed emptying of the stomach in addition to gas accumulation can also cause bloating and abdominal distension.
