What Causes Excessive Flatulence?

Hello. I ve been more gas buildup and flatulence than normal off and for the past week. Today, those symptoms have been occurring, but for the last 5 hours, I ve been feeling I need to poop, or pass gas, but when I sit on a toilet, I either pass gas, or a clear, runny, and bubbly liquid comes out. I ve never had this happen before.

Flatulence is due to excessive gas production in intestine while digestion which usually happens due to excessive addition of fibers (beans and grams) in diet and food intolerance where body takes longer time to digest and produce lot of gas.
If its due to a intolerance to a food stuff avoid taking it. and add fibers to your diet in small quantity to give time for the body to adjust.
Drink lot of water to flush it out.
Hope it helped.
