Does the Ms Hug Cause Bloating?

Many people with multiple sclerosis (MS) struggle with intestinal issues. There is evidence of the link between gut health and MS. Bloating is a common result of these issues. It's super annoying and always happens at the worst time, such as when you're out and about or wearing something fitted to an event.

Does MS make you gassy?

I was shocked to read that “… up to 25-30% of all MS patients suffer from dyspepsia, a rate that is twice that of the general population.” Dyspepsia is pain, bloating, and an uncomfortable feeling of fullness.

What does a multiple sclerosis hug feel like?

The 'MS hug' is symptom of MS that feels like an uncomfortable, sometimes painful feeling of tightness or pressure, usually around your stomach or chest. The pain or tightness can stretch all around the chest or stomach, or it can be just on one side. The MS hug can feel different from one person to another.
