What Causes Severe Flatulence Along With Hard Belches?
I have been expelling gas and experiencing hard belches over the last 3 days. I went to urgent care Sunday, 3/3/13/16 and told to take citrate magnesium and given a stool softener. I was relieved that day and able to pass a stool. However, the same problem started on Monday and has continued since then.
