HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, excessive gas formation could be due to dyspepsia, it may be due to protozoa infection, I would advise to change the diet, hey protein need to be avoided if no indication of it is there, even egg white may be the cause, on tentative basis you can try Tab Metronidazole 400 gm twice in day for five days, try to have green leafy vegetable hope this information helps.
