Question 1

why does farting on pillow cause polyps?

Accepted Answer

It does not: Farting does not cause polyps.  If you strain to have a bowel movement or strain to fart, you could encourage the development of hemorrhoids due to putting pressure on the rectal blood vessles.

Question 2

can you only get pink eye from a person who has it farts om your pillow?

Accepted Answer

No: Pink eye from viral conjunctivitis is highly contagious through physical contact.  In your example, a person with it touches the infected eye, then touches your pillow, then you touch your pillow and touch your eye.  Now you can get it!

Fart on pillow eyein: No most of the flatulece contain bad gases like methane and others and will not cause pink eyr(conjunctivitis).

Question 4

okay, so i had farted on my pillow last night while i was getting in bed, i don't wear cloths/underwear to bed. should i be worried about pinkeye  ?

Accepted Answer

Doubt it: The tears contain antibacterial chemicals that suppress any germ growth.

Question 5

is it possible to get pink eye if somebody farted on my pillow three times?

Accepted Answer

Depends: Did the person have clothes on or not?  If not, fecal material could deposit on the pillow, if clothed, no worries.

Question 6

i can't hold in farts ?

Accepted Answer

When alone why try: the passing of flatus is natural and promotes colon health.  When in someones company it is simply a courtesy, in most places, not to do so.

Question 7

is it bad to hold in farts?

Accepted Answer

Not necessarily: Not if you are in a crowded room.  Flatulence is a normal bodily function.  Trying to "hold in farts" is normal if you are in public places, etc. But eventually the gas will dissipate or make its way out.

Question 8

are pillows bad for your neck?

Accepted Answer

Let me help: You need a pillow to support your head. If not, your neck will be straining all night. I guess if you feel more comfortable without one, than fine, but it's probably a bad idea.

Question 9

what causes frequent bad smelling farts?

Accepted Answer

Noxious flatus: Noxious flatus, otherwise known as smelly farts are a natural occurrence but can be worsened by eating certain foods such as kale, broccoli,  and other foods high in nitrogen.  I hope this helps.

Question 10

why do i fart so much?

Accepted Answer

Gas: Diet is important. You may be lactose intolerant. Dairy products can be eliminated to see if that resolves it. There may be other food groups or particular substances like gluten causing it. Some people swallow air from anxiety(aerophagia) causing gas. See your md for an evaluation.
