As per your clinical history is concerned, it is not cancer so please follow like this:
1) Do a clinical examination by your Doctor [gastroenterologist] and to confirm do few investigations like [Colonoscopy, Ct scan and stool exam].
2) Try to eliminate high-gas foods. If you have bothersome bloating or are passing considerable amounts of gas, then cut out such items as carbonated beverages, vegetables especially cabbage, broccoli and cauliflower and raw fruits.
3) Try to eliminate FODMAPs from the diet, so discuss with your dietitian to make a food plan.
