I fart uncontrollably. Anyone know why this is occuring and what I can do to stop it?

Recently I've noticed that something on or around me flat out stinks. I have come to the conclusion that I fart a lot, often times uncontrollably and I think even unknowingly, and its causing me to stink to high heaven. I wipe thoroughly, I wash the area everyday, but I guess these things aren't going to help when I go through school farting all day.

Any recommendations? Thanks. (I'm a 17 year old male btw)

    Farting is predominantly controlled by the food you eat. For example, if you eat a lot of beans. They are terrible for farting. Some green vegetables, as healthy as they are, are also agents of farting. There are plenty of resources online about foods that contribute to farting so just look them up. But yes I'd say your diet is responsible for it. I know cos I eat a lot of green veg and I also fart a lot. Plus males do tend to fart more than females anyway.

    Well, I would hope you know when you fart, so lets skip to another idea. It could possibly be Body Odor, or trying to be polite.... make sure you are wiping thoroughly. One other thing I think of, is I had a knot on my chest. I tried to pop a blackhead, and it over the period of several years slowly grew. Didn't give me any problems or pain. Once it got to the size of a chocolate covered raisin, I starting smelling something, the knot was very slowly oozing. So slow it wasn't noticeable. Just a few ideas, hope you can find out the source. Good luck

    Ahh. I went through this also. All I needed to do was grab a large sized cork and stuff it up my rear! Though...I couldn't go number 2 for around 7 weeks after...but hey, whatever keeps my foul anal odors away!

    It could be what you're eating. Things like beans, some types of veggies, soda, all will produce gas.
