Question 1

lot of gas, foul flatulence, bloating, and stomach cramping-not painful, for 2 weeks. started soy protein 2 weeks ago but quit 7 days ago. 40 yo male?

Accepted Answer

Any other new foods?: Splenda (yellow packet, aka sucralose) and sorbitol (in gummy candies), diet candies, prune juice can all cause horrible GI distress. Any other new vitamins or supplements, or meds or other new foods/drinks?  If so, stop them.  If not, see your doc and find out what is going on.

Question 2

i have a lot of fart these days?

Accepted Answer

Gas: Hi Ryo, I&#x27;m sorry to hear that.  If you are experiencing more gas/flatulence (farting) than normal it may be your diet. Such foods as beans and lentils, broccoli, brussel sprouts, cabbage and other vegetables high in soluble fiber, Lactose, certain sugars and/or sugar substitutes, as well as foods high in starch may be the problem. Not to mention certain conditions like anxiety, etc. Good luck!

Question 3

possible reasons why i fart a lot?

Accepted Answer

Food: Beans and other lenteals produce excessive gas. Also constipatioin .
Take Reglan (metoclopramide) 10 mg at night 2 weeks and then take one tablet when you eat gassy foods.

Question 4

i fart a lot what could be the problem ?

Accepted Answer

Gas issues : Several things come to mind: gall bladder/pancreatic disease, intestinal bacterial overgrowth, swallowing air, malabsorption of foods, poor digestion of foods,  and certain food produce gas.

Question 5

i fart a lot and it smells really good. is this normal?

Accepted Answer

?: Everyone is different.  As long as  other issues are occurring, no worries.

Question 6

hello i am kind of worried that i am having puss come out and lots of it , i can't even fart because it starts coming out ?

Accepted Answer

This sounds bad: Not sure what you are trying to describe, but it doesn't sound good.  You should get checked out if you have pus coming out of your rectum.

Question 7

i fart a lot when i get nervous. is this normal?

Accepted Answer

What's the cause?: Flatulence neither localizes your problem to small or large bowel, nor indicate severity or cause. You have described a gut that may be dysfunctional--but is this due to infection, sibo, motility problems, inflammation, ibs, ischemic disease, maldigestion, sphincter problem...? How long have your symptoms lasted, is there accompanying fever, bleeding, vomiting, tenderness? Change diet. W/stress?

Question 8

are there medications to stop someone from farthing as i fart a lot?

Accepted Answer

Maybe: Eating a healthy diet can cause gas due to excess fiber. Since humans don't digest the fiber, intestinal bacteria will eat it and make gas as a byproduct. "Beano" enzyme may help. Another reason is lactose intolerance, in which one can't digest lactose (milk sugar). "Lactaid" tablets help. A third reason is sugar alcohols, like maltitol, that can cause gas. One's doctor can look for other causes.

Question 9

what causes farts that smell really bad and a lot worse than normal?

Accepted Answer

Giardia?: May things can upset the balance in your GI tract causing gas, bloating, and even changes in stool. Infection (recent antibiotics?), giardia (travel hx?), change in diet (might you be milk or wheat sensitive?), etc. You can try "pro-biotics" (lactobaccillus), or charcoal tablets, &amp; focusing on a healthy, balanced diet (note some foods cause more gas, see Dr. Google). If persists, see your doctor.

Question 10

my two yr old farts a lot and very smelly is this anything to worry about?

Accepted Answer

Milk intolerance?: I would try changing to a lactose free milk. I don't think it is a medical emergency, but could be an intolerance to lactose.
