A member asked:

The last couple of days i have had very bad gas that really stinks! it's constant and strong, also feel swollen, bloaty, but no heartburn, any ideas?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Diet: Gas is produced by bacteria in your intestines as it consumes some of the food you eat. Certain foods result in greater gas production, and certain bacteria produce smellier gas. One possibility is to clean out the bowel with a combination of stool softener and laxative. Alternatively, a probiotic could also help shift the bacterial population to less smelly ones.
