What Causes Abdominal Bloating And Diarrhea?

I have sulfur burps, gas, bloating and diarrhea. I am on lactose free, gluten free diet. Nothing but taking Imodium, gas x and tums when I have a flare up, helps. Do not know what is causing this but I know when I burp and have the rotten egg taste, diarrhea follows from 2to 6 hours later

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

You may be suffering from Irritable bowel problems or infections or malobsorption syndromes or food Intolerance etc. Until examination is done it is difficult to say what it is. Avoid spicy food and alcohol avoid smoking and caffeine drinks. Avoid dairy products and gluten free diet. Avoid processed sugars, peanut butter etc. If symptoms not improved please consult your doctor he will examine and treat you accordingly.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
