A member asked:

My baby has severe trapped wind what can i do to help her? i'm lactose intolerant could she be?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: She could be lactose intolerant or milk protein intolerant. Homeopathic cocyntal may help her pass the wind.. Pumping her ;legs in a bicycle fashion may help too. Gently rubbing her tummy in a clockwise direction may also help. Hope one of these ideas helps.
