Magical cures for trapped wind?!

[WetBandits]

As above, I’m desperate 😫 so bloated and uncomfortable and just cannot muster up the fart I desperately need 😂

I’ve tried peppermint tea, yoga poses, bicycle legs, buscopan, drinking a fizzy drink quickly, jumping up and down…nothing!

Please tell me your remedies because I am not having fun.

Deflatine tablets

Ooh I forgot about those, used them years ago and remember them working for me then. Will see if they have some in the chemist at work and then hopefully spend the afternoon farting away between seeing patients 💨

Get on the floor, knees and elbows on the floor. Lower your arms onto the floor and raise your bum. Try to lower your tummy towards the floor keeping your bum raised.

Strong coffee and a power walk. Also second yoga. Chest close to the floor as possible. Bum in the air

Like this but with your bum higher

You might want to try it somewhere private.
Parp!

Go to the library or a church, you're most likely to fart in a quiet place.
In all seriousness, you must be so uncomfortable. My DH had appendicitis and the doctor stuck his finger up dh's bum to see if it was trapped wind. That could be a last resort. Or could you take laxative and hope everything comes out at once.

Squat. It opens up the tubes.

Lie on your back and cycle your legs, or pull them to your chest one at a time and hold for a bit.

On my living room floor with my bum in the air as I type 😂 I can feel it descending but it’s just not coming out 😫

Could you find a handsome man and get in a lift with him?

Oh that’ll do it! We do have a handsome courier, hopefully he’s around today as he may provoke a fart 😂

Lay on your bed on your left side for a while with your knees bent.

Lay on your back and twist with your knees to the right and arms to the left, and then the other way. It’s the only thing that works for me!

Simple hot water with lemon can work wonders for me. Trapped wind is so painful !

Flat coke and a 5 min walk

I was going to say yoga ‘happy baby pose ‘ . Sometimes I also make myself sick. Hot bath/hot water bottle.

Lay flat and raise your right leg
You need to breathe and relax the muscles so you can let it out, as it were!

Have you tried having a sensible conversation with someone who doesn't have much of a sense of humour? That's almost guaranteed to lure a bottom trumpet.

Cat cow positions repeatedly

And yes to coffee and a long brisk walk

Failing that, coffee then cat cow. And a bit of side to side hip movement.

I am on a hysterectomy Facebook group and the two things that always get recommended are peppermint oil/cordial and love hearts!

Deflatine, as PP said, or windeeze. It's a completely different mechanism of action than buscopan etc.

Peppermint oil. Not peppermint tea, it isn’t strong enough. If you’re near a pub (the old man type of pub, not a cool and trendy bar) they may have peppermint cordial behind the bar. A shot of that will do it too.

Lie flat on your front on the floor

Massage your stomach in circular motion.
