Hi,
This is 100% normal. Flatus is due to the bacteria degrading proteins in the diet. It depends upon the type of good commensal bacteria in gut. No need to treat.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Sumanth Amperayani, Pediatrician, Pulmonology
