Default my seahorse has gas bubble disease

so im sure my seahorse has it. I cant get a good picture of it but it looks like a little bubble on her belly I have been reading that you can sometimes massage the bubble out or pop it with a syrenge. Any advice on this?

That sounds like an interesting project to undertake. Grabbing a seahorse and stabbing it in the stomach with a needle....EWW!!!
