Thanks, Doc for your quick reply.
By increased gas I mean increased flatus. I don't have abdominal pain, but abdominal bloating. I am not diabetic. I have this problem every day specially after dinner.
I had fissure problem too, so I am also being very picky about food, but I usually have increased flatus when I eat outside food.
Thanks,

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for the additional information.
Some amount of flatus can be considered normal. It is said a normal person passes flatus upto 20 times a day.
Increased flatus can be due to certain food items you take or if you have bowel infection.
Carbohydrate/fiber rich food increases bowel gas. Try to lessen these if you have increased gas. You can also take digestive enzymes like Galto/Beano for relief.
Infection also increases flatulence. Stool analysis may be done to confirm infection. Take a course of probiotics.
Simethicone ( available as Gasofilm) will provide relief from increased flatus.
