Bloating: IBS Or Appendicitis?

[THoltz]

Hello everyone,

so the past couple of hours I’ve been horribly bloated.

I have no idea what caused it but I had some lower abdominal pain with it too.

I have drank plenty of water and also I have had a couple cups of ginger/lemon tea

the bloated ness and pain have subsided somewhat but I am concerned that it might be appendicitis.

Maybe you need a good fart.

You really need to learn how to not react to something that's only happened for a couple of hours.

in the past hour I have been doing just that. I feel much better now.

I think I may have some form of IBS though

And sometimes, you just need to fart. It doesn't always have to be 'something'. Not every sensation requires (over)thought.
