When experiencing abdominal pain due to intestinal gas, the following measures can help alleviate symptoms: first, adjust eating habits to avoid excessive intake of gas-producing foods such as beans and onions, and try to eat smaller, more frequent meals while chewing slowly; second, engage in moderate physical activity, especially after meals, which can help stimulate intestinal motility and relieve bloating; at the same time, maintain a positive mood to prevent emotional stress from causing gastrointestinal dysfunction. If symptoms persist or worsen, medication such as prokinetic agents or antispasmodics may be considered, but should be used under a doctor's supervision. If abdominal pain is severe or does not subside over time, prompt medical attention is advised to rule out underlying conditions and receive appropriate professional treatment.
