Relief should be nearly immediate if his problem is simple bloat.

Some other diseases and conditions can mimic bloat, such as enterotoxemia and urinary stones.

Does he have a fever? Is he pulling his head around to one side? Can he urinate? Has he pooped?

Give vegetable oil about 1 to 2 tablespoons, this works alot better for bloat than baking soda. Then hold him with his front end higher than his rear and deeply massage his abdomen especially the left side to help him burp. He may have enterotoxemia by now from his digestive system not moving. Give 1 cc penicillin orally and 1 cc penicillin per 15 pounds by SQ injection twice a day. Give CD antitoxin at the therapeutic dose (consult bottle).
