What tips do you have for managing bloating in the stomach?

Stomach always feeling full want to eat but can't because of the stomach bloating
Anybody else feel like that?
What can I do to elevate the symptoms

  1. CommunityMember410d7f,
    I would call my medical team first and foremost. Proper nutrition is vital to helping you cope with COPD. If you are constantly bloated, your doctor needs to find out why and treat the problem so you can eat a good diet. There has to be a reason for constant bloating. Please contact your medical team. Take care and God Bless!

    1. I definitely can identify

  2. , in addition to what said, I wanted to include an article we have on bloating that might be helpful to you: https://copd.net/living/bloating-why-what-to-do. All the best, Sam S. (COPD team).

    1. Thank you for the resources and thank you for all the information

        My stomach always feeling full makes it hard for me eat and the swelling of my legs and feet makes it worse cause I can't drink lots of water
        Iam in a catch 22 situation
