What Causes Gassy Stomach With Soft Stools?

Hi i am a 25 year old male and been suffering from candida for some time. Last week i had one beer and my stomach has been very gassy since. The stools are very soft and my stomach feels heavy after passing them. The first day it was kind of like diarreah but now it just feels heavy and gassy with soft stools.

Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted the history about a 25 year old male having candida for sometime, had beer last week and since then have the problem of soft stools and feel very gassy, stomach feels heavy after passing motion and diarrhea initially.
This looks to be due to intestinal infection.
I would like to advise you the following:
Get the stool tests.
Get a course of an antibiotic and metronidazole,
Activated charcoal and a PPI like Omeprazole helps a lot.
This will help you to have control of the symptoms.
You will be fine soon.
