My father-age 89, goes to toilet daily 7/8 times. Of these, he passes stool 1/2 times only. All other times he passes too much gas everyday. It feels as he has big tank of gas in stomach. Too much ugly sounds. He do not have teeth in mouth so all food he takes is like paste. please share the suggestion.

I am sorry to hear about your concern but will be happy to assist you. Some flatulence is normal, but excessive farting is often a sign that the body is reacting strongly to certain foods. This can indicate a food intolerance or that a person has a digestive system disorder, such as irritable bowel syndrome. Typically, people pass gas 5–15 times per day. Let's connect over a call so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a suitable treatment plan for you.
