Bloating is any abnormal general swelling, or increase in diameter of the abdominal area. As a symptom, the patient feels a full and tight abdomen, which may cause abdominal pain sometimes accompanied by borborygmus. Bloating may have several causes, the most common being accumulation of liquids and intestinal gas. Ascites is the proper medical term for abdominal bloating caused by excessive accumulation of liquid inside the cavity.

Common causes for abdominal bloating are:

Overeating (gastric distension)
Lactose intolerance, fructose intolerance and other food intolerances
Food allergy
Aerophagia (air swallowing, a nervous habit)
Alvarez' syndrome, hysterical or neurotic abdominal bloating without excess of gas in the digestive tract
Irritable bowel syndrome
Partial bowel obstruction
Gastric dumping syndrome or rapid gastric emptying
The ingestion of some gas-producing foods
Constipation
