Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted the history and understood your concerns.
Such a severe gas problem that is not allowing an young person of 26 for the last 7-8 years can be due to the following reasons:
IBS that is irritable bowel syndrome which is usually related to the constant stress and/or anxiety. It can manifest in varied ways.
Disturbed intestinal bacterial flora.
Intolerance to certain foods and beverages.
Intestinal pathology like tuberculosis or so which need deep evaluation.
I would advise you the following in such a situation:
First of all X-ray of the abdomen in standing position to see whether there are changes of intestinal obstruction, gas-fluid levels or so.
CT scan of the abdomen helps a lot.
Tests of blood, stool and urine.
Colonoscopy.
Clinical evaluation by a Gastroenterologist and correlation with reports of investigations can help you to get a proper diagnosis and management.
Avoid foods and beverages that cause the problems.
Control of stress and anxiety are important factors in management.
If all the reports are normal then get treated as a case of IBS.
I find this answer helpful
