Abdominal bloating surgery is a medical intervention considered only when persistent or severe bloating is caused by a structural or serious underlying condition rather than routine digestive issues. Most cases of bloating are related to gas, constipation, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), or food intolerances, which can be managed with diet, lifestyle changes, and medications. Surgery is reserved for situations where the bloating results from physical obstruction or growths in the abdomen. Common conditions requiring surgery include hernia, where a portion of the intestine protrudes through the abdominal wall; gallbladder disease, such as gallstones causing inflammation; intestinal obstruction from scar tissue, tumors, or strictures; large ovarian cysts or uterine fibroids pressing on the intestines; and abdominal or colon tumors. Surgical procedures may include hernia repair, cholecystectomy, bowel resection, or gynecologic surgery depending on the cause. Minimally invasive laparoscopic surgery is often preferred due to smaller incisions, reduced pain, and faster recovery, although open surgery may be necessary in complex or emergency cases. Surgery is considered only after careful evaluation with imaging tests and failure of conservative treatments. Persistent bloating accompanied by weight loss, vomiting, bleeding, or severe pain warrants immediate medical attention. For Consultation Book You Appointment With Dr Vipul Nandu Today.
