Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Causes Excessive Intestinal Gas While Suffering From Bowel Obstruction?
Hi. I hope you can. 2 months ago, I was hospitalized with my fifth small bowel obstruction. Now, I have developed excessive intestinal gas and my stools are usually yellowish in color. Does this need to be checked out by my doctor or lab tests or something?
The yellowish color of stools can be related to an infection of the intestine. I suggest to do a stool test to confirm the diagnosis. Meanwhile, I suggest using daily probiotics. I also recommend using Simethicone medications three times a day to reliever the intestine gas.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
