A member asked:

I am 23 years old. i pass gas excessively.i had a low neutrophil count in my recent blood test. does this indicate anything for my flatulence problem?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: If this is truly a problem and excessive you should see a GI doctor for evaluation. This could be food sensitivity, abnormal intestinal bacterial growth, lactose intolerance or a long list of other problems. A good GI doctor can help you sort it out
