Pait Mein Gas Ka Ilaj: Effective Treatments for Abdominal Bloating

Understanding Abdominal Bloating and Gas

Pait mein gas (stomach bloating) is one of the most common digestive complaints Dr. Ali Taj sees in his Karachi practice. This uncomfortable condition affects people of all ages and can significantly impact quality of life. With over 27 years of specialized gastroenterology experience, Dr. Taj offers expert diagnosis and treatment for patients suffering from persistent abdominal bloating and gas.

Abdominal bloating occurs when excessive gas builds up in the intestinal tract, causing uncomfortable distension, pain, and sometimes embarrassing symptoms. While occasional bloating is normal, persistent or severe symptoms may indicate underlying digestive disorders that require medical attention.
