What Causes Sever Gas Post Colonoscopy?

I had a colonoscopy about ten days ago. On the same day I had a double (air) barium x-ray. I was told that this was so the last two inches of my large colon could be seen. For over 10 days I have had severe gas pain. I am passing gas now and then but have little relief from the severe gas type pain. Is this normal? How long will this last?
I am not getting answers from the two doctors that performed this procedure and are in this practice together.
