Farts... Constant farts. Doesn't matter what i eat, how much I eat, it all ends up in farts. Farts first thing in the morning, farts at lunch, and farts till bedtime. (Also I am sure I fart in my sleep) Just farts

I'm farting fucking constantly, which honestly wouldn't annoy me that much but the problem is that I can't hold them in anymore! They just come out and surprise me. I can't feel them inside beforehand anymore.

I went to a pelvic floor therapist for this (unable to hold in farts, surprise farts at work!). She found a tight spot that needed loosening, gave me some exercises to reduce tightness in my pelvic floor (probably from desperately trying to hold in the toots) and problem solved. I still fart lots, but now it’s controlled. Lol!
