But after endoscopy and taking antibiotics the problem was symptomatically 80 % solved. But he missed to follow proper diet . Since one month the problem was symptomatically started again. Then, he took Monrab IT tablet for 1 week, ( monrab IT , the doctor was prescribed) ... Now he is stopped the medicine and following the proper diet and physical activities... Now the problem is almost cured... He don't have that much of bloating after food
