HI
Does anyone have any amazing cures for trapped wind, please? Been up three hours, woke at 01:30 in agony.
Started Dukan diet two days ago so assume it's that............ or rubling gallbladder but rumbling noises indicate otherwise!

Before you ask, yes, I work for a bank, but no, I didn't get a bonus!

Not an amazing cure but I tend to take a couple of glasses of water and just keep on the move as much as possible to let it work its way out
I have been up since about 1:30 as well and have also had trapped wind but it seems to have dissipated but not yet come out

Go down on all fours (like a cat). Lower shoulders to the ground so bottom is in the air. stay in that position for a few minutes if possible & it often help to release the wind.
I second the drinking water thing - get the peristalsis action going."Sometimes letting things go is an act of far greater power than defending or hanging on.”0 -
drink a little peppermint oil in hot water0

GUaranteed cure is to lie on your back with your kness bent up and rub your tummy. It sometimes takes a while but it works its way out eventually. I went through a phase in my pregnancy where I was crippled with it and this sorted me out most of the time.[/QUOTE

These good old yoga techniques will always work

To prevent it in the first place, eat slowly (don't gulp food down) and drink plenty of fluids at the same time. Avoiding high fibre grains will help to.Value-for-money-for-me-puhleeze!

Mint tea works wonders. I try to drink a mug with each meal and one in the evening. "A cat can have kittens in the oven, but that don't make them biscuits." - Mary Cooper
