Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you for asking!
You are reporting to have a lot of gas and cramps all the time. These symptoms may be related with :
- IBS
- candida overgrowth
- air swallowed during meal
-malabsorbtion.
At this situation firstly I recommend to treat yeast infection with antifungal treatment like fluconasole.
I suggest to do:
- abdominal ultrasoun
- fecal exam for malabsorbtion
Meantime I suggest to:
- use probiotics
- avoid swallowing air during meal
-avoid fatty and sugar foods
-increase physical activity
- use fresh fruits and vegetables
- avoid foods that produce gas likebeans, carbonated drinks , broccoli
- start to use digestive enzymes.
Hope it was helpful to you!

Hi. I am avoding most of the spicy and fried foods and many kinds of lentil to avoid gas issues, but some times the gas is too much stuck and not passing out and cramps in stomach when passing gas. Cramps are not there sometimes only gas and sometime gas and cramp. If ultra sound report is normal then what would be the next step. And why do you think i have loose stool sometimes please note its not watery.

Detailed Answer:
Hi back.
Loose stools( not watery) may be related with
- IBS
- yeast infection
- mild food malabsorbtion
If your abdominal ultrasound is normal than pleas perform fecal exams like:
- fecal test for Candida overgrowth
- fecal exam test for food malabsorbtion
I repeat the most cause of your symptoms is IBS.
Hope it was helpful to you!
