oneangel34 51 Posted September 27, 2012 I used the gas x strips. They helped me a lot! I am sorry you are hurting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PattyGirl66 1,243 Posted September 27, 2012 The gas you are experiencing is internal. The only way you are going to get some relief from this is to walk it out. Many say a heating pad can help, however do NOT put the heating pad on your belly. Gas x strips you can try. Um, twirl your arms in circular motions (like a windmill). Walk, walk, move, move around..... wish you luck, it will pass!! Hand in there!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

brandice 40 Posted September 28, 2012 i rotated my arms like wind mills because most of my pain was in my shoulders i also used a rice pack on my shoulders that helped pull out the gas Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
