Hi,I am Dr. Subhankar Chakraborty (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi, I quit smoking 3 weeks ago from 20 a day. Since then I have had regular, foul smelling flatulance. It is always smelling the same no matter what I eat, and it is so disgusting I cant even stand it myself, let alone be in public often. What can I do?
According to your complain you have problem of foul smell at bowel movement that may be because of gas problem....
If this problem is long standing than barium x abdominal x ray helpful in diagnosis.. Simethicon drug can use for gas relief.. Stool examination test is helpful to check infection present or not...
Drink more water.. Avoid gaseous foods like cabbage, cauliflower, turnips, carbonated drinks etc...
Consult a gastroenterologist for further diagnosis.. I hope my guidance helpful to you... Take care.. Thank you.
