Persistent gas

Question

Persistent gas

Asked for Male, 42 Years

I have persistent gas in my abdominal area. My stool test has shown RBC 0-1, and pus cells - 3-4 with no blood in stool. What are the next steps I should take? Doctor advised ultrasound and stool culture. Does this help finding what is the issue that's causing gassiness? Should I go for CT scan instead of ultrasound? Please advice.
