I am in the car and if I blow up my tummy it hurts

Okay, so it sounds like you're talking about bloating, which is when your tummy feels full and puffy, and sometimes it can even hurt. Bloating can totally happen in the car because sitting for a long time can make it worse.

Bloating often happens around your period or when your period is about to start. Hormones can make your body hold onto more water, which makes you feel all puffy. Eating certain foods can also make you bloated, especially gassy foods or things high in salt. And sometimes, just like, swallowing a lot of air when you talk or eat can do it too.

To feel better, try to drink some water if you can, and maybe walk around a little bit when you stop for a break. If you're still in the car, you can try to loosen any tight clothing around your waist. Sometimes gently rubbing your tummy can help. If it's really uncomfortable, ask a grown-up if they have any gentle tummy ache medicine you can take. If it happens a lot or hurts really bad every time, it's a good idea to mention it to a grown-up.
