I feel sick when i hold in farts

5 Comments

I've noticed over the years that if I hold in farts, I begin to feel really sick. In the past, I tried to hold in farts out of "common courtesy", and shortly after the farts dissipated (most likely travelled back up my intestines) I began to feel really, really sick to my gut. This feeling lasts for hours. This is one of the reasons why I try not to hold in farts anymore. Is this normal when you hold in your farts?

    Yes, it's normal. It's a sign you're going to spontaneously combust.

    Try Beano, or similar products, and consider reducing your intake of carbonated beverages. Anti-gas meds like Beano sound like a crock of shit, but they either provide or trigger production of digestive enzymes that make the digestion process more efficient, reducing gas. This has the side effect of increasing caloric and carbohydrate intake, which can be a factor for people on a diet and people with diabetes.

    Use the google to find foods that don't produce gruesome, incendiary, or noticeable gas.

    Even Dr. Oz admitted that he quietly lets the gas escape because it is an unavoidable function of the body. Of course the smell is an issue and depending on what you ingest can be quite deadly. On the other hand, holding in all that "methane gas" can be deadly too.
    I think that we all try to hold in our farts because it can be embarrassing for the obvious reasons.
