Question

I’ve been farting a lot recently, over 10 times a day. What could be the reason?

Answer

If there’s no discomfort or pain in the abdomen, it’s generally not a problem to have frequent farts. Such a situation can be caused by high-protein diets, an increase in intestinal gas-producing bacteria, or factors like slowed gastrointestinal motility due to catching a cold and food residue staying in the intestines for too long. Therefore, it’s important to make a judgment based on the specific situation.
