Warnings
Persistent bloating can sometimes signal intestinal blockage. There are many possible causes for these blockages, including scar tissue from prior surgeries, certain medications, abdominal infections, accumulation of waste matter in the intestines, and hernias. Chronic bloating could also be caused by a mass such as an ovarian cyst or uterine fibroid, or signal a more serious underlying liver or pancreas disease.Women over 50 should be especially cautious and consult a doctor about any chronic bloating.
