Gas And Flatulence

What is the source of your gas and flatulence, and when should it be medically assessed in Europe?

Gas and flatulence explained: intestinal fermentation, swallowed air, diet triggers, IBS, lactose intolerance, and red flag symptoms.

In this episode, we outline why gas forms in the digestive tract and how doctors distinguish normal bloating from underlying gastrointestinal disease during an online consultation in the EU.

You’ll learn:

• How gut bacteria ferment carbohydrates and produce gas

• The role of high-FODMAP foods in bloating

• Why lactose intolerance can increase flatulence

• How swallowed air (aerophagia) contributes

• The link between IBS and excess gas

• When probiotics or dietary modification may be considered

• Red flag symptoms such as weight loss, persistent abdominal pain, vomiting, or blood in stool

• Situations where medication requests may be declined pending further investigation

We explain how doctors assess symptom duration, dietary pattern, bowel habit changes, recent antibiotic use, stress factors, and family history of gastrointestinal disease before recommending treatment. Persistent or progressive symptoms may require laboratory testing or imaging.

This episode reflects the clinical standards used by Mobi Doctor, where gastrointestinal consultations are reviewed by a registered physician in line with EU medical guidance.
