Brief Answer:
it is loss of GUT compliance
Detailed Answer:
Hi and thanks for the query
I can understand your concern but I think you are being a bit of paranoid.
Belching and farting (passing gas via anus) is not specifically associated with HIV or STD. They usually represent loss of GUT compliance ( secondary to inflammation) or low grade malabsorption. These are usually seen after intestinal infections or antibiotics.
I would suggest you to take a 7 - 10 day course of probiotics and zinc supplement and avoid milk. You can have plenty of fresh curd as it is a good source of probiotics.
It is my advice to be prudent and avoid such activities in the future.
Regards
Dr XXXXXXX

Hi and thanks for the update
If the weight has remained stable, I wouldn't worry much. The malabsorption I had written about is a transient issue following infection or antibiotics. It will recover spontaneously.
No other natural food has prebiotics like curd. Curd can be taken even if you have cold. However if you are apprehensive you can take any of the commercially available prebiotics

Hi again
This is called gastrocolic reflex and can occur either because of postinfectious mucosal irritation or anxiety. Either way a probiotic tablet and curd will help.
