Why do I often fart?

　　Fart sound: You are bloating!

　　Why: Like burping, this is the body expelling gas produced during digestion. The normal frequency of farts in the human body is 10 times a day.

　　There are generally two reasons for frequent farting. One is due to frequent consumption of gas-producing foods, such as sweet potatoes, onions, cabbage, beans and other soy products, which leads to the occurrence of farting. The other is the possibility of suffering from "irritable bowel syndrome", which is clinical There will also be stomach ache , abdominal distension and farting and other phenomena occur. In terms of diet, it is recommended that you eat small amounts frequently and avoid overeating. When eating, you should chew slowly and carefully to avoid eating too much air at the same time. Foods that are prone to gas production should also be avoided. Drinking a cup of yogurt every day can help change the bacteria in your gastrointestinal tract.

　　What to do: Get into the habit of eating slowly and stay away from foods that are prone to popping, such as beans, sugar substitutes (such as xylitol, sorbitol, etc.), some fat-free potato chips, soda, fructose (a sugar used in food processing along with sweeteners), and lactose. In addition, sulfur-containing vegetables such as cabbage and dairy products can cause smelly gases in the body. if you are in constipate or diarrhea state, or always succumb to the temptation of chocolate, then more gas will be produced in the body, leading to "poof".

　　See a doctor now:

　　If you don't fart for a long time, it means there is a serious problem. If a newborn does not fart, check whether he has anus or anal hypoplasia. If an adult does not fart, and the abdomen is bloated like a drum, it means abdominal distension. In this case, it is necessary to consider whether there is an anorectal problem, such as inflammation, tumor, constipation, hemorrhoids, etc. If necessary, an anal intubation is needed to exhaust air. People with intussusception, intestinal volvulus, or intestinal obstruction have no fart because the fart is blocked by the intestines.

　　If you have severe abdominal pain, bloating, diarrhea, or constipation, you may have enteritis or a food allergy.

　　If there is no fart and severe intestinal colic, you must go to the hospital urgently. Hospital Seek medical attention and provide emergency treatment. In addition, peritonitis caused by gastric perforation and perforated appendicitis can cause the abdomen to become hard and painful to touch, and there may be no gas.
