Detailed Answer:
Hello, greetings!
Thanks for posting your query on hcm.
You seem to be having a problem of flatulence along with constipation.
For this, you may take Syrup LACTULOSE 1 tablespoon in the night before going to bed for 15 days.
Also, you may take ISABGOL husk, 2 spoons in a glass of milk once everyday.
Take a proton pump inhibitor like capsule PANTOPRAZOLE 40 mg in the morning and night half an hour before food for 10 days.
Avoid beans, legumes and lentils as they cause excessive production of gas.
Do moderate exercise for 45 minutes to an hour everyday. Drink plenty of water and avoid spicy, oily and junk food.
Follow this regime and you should be ok.
If you have any further doubts/ clarifications, you may get back to me.
Regards,
Dr. Sonia
