Question: in the last 2-3 weeks I have had a larger amount of gas sometimes it gurgles so people on the other side of the table can hear it.
Brief Answer:
Gastrointestinal Infection...
Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you for asking!
You are reporting to have had 2-3 weeks with symptoms like gurgling and gas.
These symptoms may be related with :
- acute gastrointestinal infection
- candida overgrowth
To my opinion you can use or Gas X oral to avoid gas forming. Otherwise It is really important to avoid foods like :broccoli, beans and soft drinks.
In such cases it is recommended to do :
- fecal culture test
- fecal test for ova parasites
- fecal test for candida overgrowth
- abdominal ultrasound
Hope it was helpful to you.
