Bloating is one of the most common digestive complaints and may range from mild fullness after meals to significant abdominal distention and discomfort throughout the day. Symptoms are often unpredictable and may fluctuate depending on diet, stress, bowel habits, or underlying gastrointestinal conditions.

For some patients, bloating is related to food intolerance or constipation, while others may have bacterial overgrowth, motility disorders, or functional gastrointestinal conditions such as irritable bowel syndrome. Evaluation focuses on identifying contributing factors and developing practical, individualized treatment strategies aimed at improving both symptoms and daily quality of life.
