Suggest Treatment For Severe Flatulence

Hi, I m 25 years old and been struggling from loud farting problem. The smell is not usually that foul but the sounds create a lot of discomfort and embarrassment for me. My poop is normal too and I m not constipated either, I also take healthy diet but still a victim of this problem. Please help me out and suggest a good medicine, cure or diet for immediate and longterm solution.

Hi,

Flatulence might be due to aerophagia or gastric or intestinal flatulence. So it's must to find out which type it is. I advice you to:
-Chew food thoroughly, eat slowly and leisurely.
Avoid:
- Talking during meals
- Excess carbonated drinks.
- Chewing gums, betel nuts.
- Avoid: Gas forming foods eg. Cabbage, cauliflower, peas etc & also air whipped food, eg: butter milk, milk shakes, sponge, cakes, idlis, puris.

- Take Antacid with dimethycon tablet or liquid after food
- Rule out amoebic infection.
lf associated diarrhoea: Take Enzyme digestants and pancreatin after each meal.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Yogapriya Vasudevan, General & Family Physician
