The average person farts 10 to 18 times a day, and the smell of farts varies depending on the type of food eaten. (Schematic diagram/PIXABAY)
Normal people fart, but abnormal farts may be the body’s alarm. A man in his 50s had a problem with abnormal farting. He would stop farting for the past month, which meant that he could not finish it. After a colonoscopy, it was discovered that it was due to the growth of a huge cancerous tumor in his large intestine. , causing the passage of the large intestine to shrink, making it impossible for waste gas to be discharged smoothly.
Qian Zhenghong, the attending physician of the Gastroenterology Department of Keelung Chang Gung Memorial Hospital, mentioned in the program “After Hours Economics” that the above-mentioned patient said that he often had diarrhea when he was young, and in the past month, the abdominal distension has become serious, and when he knocks his stomach, it feels like beating a drum. There is a sound of air, and it is easier to fart, but it stops again and cannot be finished in one go.
After consultation, Dr. Qian Zhenghong judged that the man’s intestines might be blocked. A colonoscopy revealed that there was a huge cancer tumor in the man’s colon, leaving only a small channel in the large intestine, so there was only a small amount of air and water. It can be discharged.
In this regard, Dr. Qian Zhenghong also explained that it is normal for people to fart 10 to 18 times a day. This is because the carbohydrates eaten will produce gas after digestion. The ingredients include methane, hydrogen, carbon dioxide, etc., but these are actually not As for the smell, only hydrogen sulfide accounting for 1% of the gas will have a smell, and it is related to the type of food people eat.
In addition, Dr. Qian Zhenghong said that foods such as meat, eggs, milk, garlic, and onions contain more sulfides, which makes farts stink. Vegetarians, on the other hand, consume more carbohydrates and cause more farts. But not a smelly situation. However, if the fart smells fishy or rancid, special attention should be paid to whether it is intestinal inflammation, ulcers, bleeding, or even colorectal cancer.
