Help me get this wind up!

[Sparkle-k]

I cannot burp at all. It's like my body has forgotten how to. And instead I feel like I really need to burp and nothing happens so I just feel ill. Is there anything other than peppermint tea I can try? x

 

[Heah]

You could try warm peppermint cordial mixed with two soluble paracetamol.... works a treat on trapped wind. Hope it helps!! x

Walking round normally helps a little.

I feel so much better when I walk around than I do laying down but still no burps at all. Is that normal? X

For some people it is, yes .... Try moving your arms in circular movements, like a swimming warm up. This should dislodge any wind in your upper torso. Hope you feel better soon, sugar xxx

hi, what about tepid boiled water, my great aunt swears by it and of course moving about, think crouching on all fours with head in hands may relax and promote wind release too (think yoga) lol

Apparently chewable windeze are good x

I got through my post-op trapped wind with Windeze and bending/stretching - nothing too violent, just held onto the wall and stretched sideways each way, and then bent forwards and then slowly came back up. Was amazing what came out *lol*

lol Mio

 

[Sparkle-k]

Lol thanks mable, I'm only two days post surgery and I think crouching on all fours is out of the question

Thanks caren, windeeze arent fizzy are they? The nurse seemed to think they were but I didn't think so!! I'm gonna pop out later and see. The worst part is the wind for sure for me!!
