Abdominophrenic dyssenergia (APD) — a dysfunction of the coordination between the diaphragm and the abdominal wall — is increasingly being recognized by doctors as a culprit for chronic bloating. 

In this video, I shared information from a recent article published in the American Journal of Gastroenterology (Damianos, Azpiroz, et al) including some of the potential treatment approaches that the authors highlighted.
