I have been suffering from a continuous gas problem for the last 15 years despite maintaining a healthy diet and experiencing no pain. What could be the underlying cause of this issue, and what medicine should I take for relief?

Continuous, painless gas for 15 years despite a healthy diet could stem from Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO), undetected food intolerances (like lactose or fructose), or chronic aerophagia (swallowing air). A gut microbiome imbalance or insufficient digestive enzymes might also be the cause. For immediate relief, over-the-counter simethicone helps disperse gas bubbles, while digestive enzymes can aid food breakdown. However, because this is a long-standing issue, you should see a gastroenterologist. They can perform a hydrogen breath test to check for SIBO. If positive, a targeted prescription medication like Rifaximin can treat the root cause.
