Hello everyone

i am 24 years old

why do I need to pass wind/fart so often?

When I haven't eaten anything I find I need to pass wind on average upto every 30 minutes on a bad day. Maybe every hour on a good day.

When I have eaten I find I need to pass wind upto every 10 minutes. That is regardless of whether I have eaten fish, meat, chips, vegetables, cereal or anything else.

When I do pass wind
a)it's embarassing (even if done silently)
b)it's unpleasant for others

if I don't pass wind
it either becomes
a)painful trapped wind
or
b)a poo, which is much more inconvenient and time consuming.


When I get wind at work, there isn't enough time to keep going in and out of the office whenever I feel wind. Nor is there enough time to keep going for poos.


Why am I getting so much wind?
How can I stop it?

This has been happening for probably 5 years.


Thanks
