What causes stomach pain and bloating?
Patient: My dad was diagnosised with end stage cirrhosis about 8 months ago.... He has varices bleeding and has had banding done on those.... he recently has another bout with varices bleeding and was passing it in his stool also... they banded again... now he has some stomach pain and feels bloated... is his disease getting worse... Doctor: Hi and welcome ot HCM. it can be caused by several causes. in most cases this is related to diet so he hould eat less irritative food. also this can be sign of gastritis gerd or hiatal hernia or obd and ibs. to rule these out her should do gastroscopy ad colonsocopy. Wish you good health. Regards
