Anyone have any home remedies for a gassy feeling.its in my chest?
Answer:
Sometimes at night, I'll wake up with a gas pain in my upper back. I do all of the following and I'm not sure if there is one specific thing that helps, or if it's the combination.
-Quickly drink a glass of water, maybe 2 if you can take it.
-Sitting or standing, put your left hand on your hip and you right hand straight up in the air, your arm next to you right ear. Lean over to the left as far as you can go while still feeling comfortable and no major pain. Repeat on the other side.
-You can also put your hands on the small of your back and squeeze your shoulder blades together. This is a good stretch for posture, but may also help move the gas around, helping to break it up.
-Also, I know this is going to sound insane, but I had a yoga teacher who started each session with this: make your hands into a fist and tap your chest in an upward motion. DON'T punch yourself or hurt yourself, just gentle taps with the fists. Supposedly it helps circulation of the blood and gets oxygen to the part of the body you are working on. I do this on my back and it actually feels good, like a massage.
Good luck! Those pains are the worst!
I would see a doctor.
not a home remedy but simethicone (chewable) is amazing!!!!
try some TUMS or something like GAS-X, or you could try using liquid MYLANTA
Arm and Hammer Baking soda (not powder) will help but it tastes horrible and will likely overdse you on sodium. You could try a bit once but don't use routinely.
My brother and grandfather always said that raw almonds and Dr Pepper worked great for upset stomach or hearburn.
