Gas can be relieved by gently massaging the abdomen and applying a hot-water bottle or pad to the area. Or walk around the house slowly for 15 to 20 minutes. Gas can also be relieved with the use of charcoal tablets which you can purchase at any local drug store.

The gas will probably go away on its own as your body heals from surgery. If not, there are many over-the-counter drugs that can help eliminate the gas. You can also try changing certain foods you eat that can cause gas like spicy foods, acidic foods, and beans.

Try eating daily yogurt to calm your digestive system. To relieve the pains from gas you need to expel it. Get into a position with your bottom raised above the rest of you- an on all fours position on the floor to allow the gas to be expelled.

Pepsi! Or any kind of carbonated drink. My mother has similar problems with gas and acid problems. I dunno what it is but the carbonation in the soda helps to lessen the symptoms. It doesn't work very well if the pop is flat though.
