Roti causes bloating, other gluten don't

2022-06-13 01:00:33
Hi Doctor, I have been facing frequent gastric issues and it usually lasts for 1-2 days. I feel bloated and release smelly gases excessively. I have been observing what I eat and realized it happens usually after I consume roti, but same is  not the case with parantha. Parantha is just fine, but after consuming roti, i see effect in 2-3 hrs. Not sure if this is some kind of food allergy or something else. Kindly advice a way forward. Thank you!

Food Allergy to roti and not to parantha, difficult to say,appears unlikely.However for gas,farting and bloating one should rule out bacteria over growth or intolerance to wheat
Next Steps
add rifagut 550 mg twice daily for 7 days take any PPI like Pan 40 mg once daily for 2 weeks
Health Tips
avoid wheat intake for while
