Question 1

can small, non smelly, clean 'farts' cause uti if they disperse to vaginal area while seated?  is there harmful bacteria in gas? had klebsiella uti.

Accepted Answer

No. No.: There are normally stool bacteria in every living person's butt crack, and the nearby skin, from front to back. There are also stool bacteria in every "fart" regardless of what it smells like. These stool bacteria are normally there (they are supposed to be there), and merely being there does not cause UTI's or other infections. Infections are due to other reasons plus bad luck.

Question 2

ever since i started drinking a lot of boiled beetroot water for my high blood pressure, my poop and fart are very smelly. could beetroot be the cause?

Accepted Answer

Probably. But where: is the science to support the use of beetroot  for high blood pressure treatment? Take your health seriously and see a physician for evaluation before your ineffectively treated hypertension leads to serious irreversible complications like stroke, heart attack and kidney failure!

Question 3

what can cause extra smelly flatulence and also bowel movements? does zyprexa or haldol (haloperidol) cause this, or diet?

Accepted Answer

Diet more likely: A more likely cause of extra smelly flatulence and bowel movements would be in the food you eat than the antipsychotic medication you take.

Question 4

can haldol (haloperidol) decanoate or zyprexa be the cause of excessive smelling flatulence and smelly feet? also lack of regular bowel movements

Accepted Answer

Possibly: Flatulence and smelly feet are uncommon side effects of tx with Haldol (haloperidol) or zyprexa. However, zyprexa is anticholinergic and may cause constipation or GI problems. If you have diabetes you may be at more risk for infections including athlete's foot with zyprexa. These problems would be less common with haldol (haloperidol).

Question 5

i pass a lot of smelly gas often. what can be the cause?

Accepted Answer

Diet and medications: Gas forms when bacteria in your colon ferment carbohydrates that aren't digested in your small intestine. Unfortunately, healthy, high-fiber foods are often the worst offenders.
High-fiber foods, swallowed air.Bowel disease, antibiotics., laxatives.Constipation and food intolerances, artificial additives.

Question 6

5 year old with very smelly gas all of the time what can cause this?

Accepted Answer

Gut germs: The smell is produced by type of germs the kid has in his gut that feed on digestive debris. You can sometimes alter the smell and help his system by giving probiotics. Culturelle makes a chewable probiotic that he could take daily or he could consume some probiotic infused yogurt and get the same benefit.

Question 7

does lactalose cause lots of gas in bowels? since starting lactalose ive had lots of smelly wind

Accepted Answer

Yes, it can.: That is a rather frequent side effect of Lactulose. If it is not tolerable, speak with your doctor to see if there are alternative medications you can try. Good luck.

Question 8

my baby is on a ha formula which  is causing him a lot if wind and smelly gas he was on a formla previously that causes him to have phlegm and cough?

Accepted Answer

FORMULA INTOLERANCE,: You can try a 'whey protein' based formula if available in your country, e.g. Garber good start'. If baby is lactose intolerant, there will be more gas, abdominal distention, diarrhea, if 'cows milk protein allergy' baby will have colic, etc. Talk to the baby's pediatrician.

Tip: there is no substitute of breast milk. Consider breast feeding for at least 6 months for your next one!

Question 9

what is the reason of excessive foul smelling gas?i had a stool test but it came normal but my stool is very smelly and i have excessive foul gas prob

Accepted Answer

Diet: You may need to alter your diet. It may require trial and error in detecting the food responsible for flatulence and bad odor. However, the first thing to try would be to reduce your total intake of food.

Question 10

what causes clay colored stools with abdominal discomfort and foul smelly gas?

Accepted Answer

Several things: These are non specific symptoms that could be as serious as liver problems and as simple as a reaction to what you eat or bacterial imbalance of your intestines. I recommend seeing a gastroenterologist. In the mean time try eating yogurt twice a week to start. Also avoid alcohol until you see a physician.
