Hello, sorry to hear about your horrendous trapped wind. I, too, have trapped wind with my IBS C, and have found Colpermin for IBS or Rennies, if you have not already tried them. Hope you find something to help.

I get this from certain foods and by process of elimination I have figured out which ones. I cannot eat any raw nuts and even roasted nuts, I have to keep at a minimum. It's all gotten much better after giving up gluten, dairy, and caffeine. The dairy was the reason I was getting wind even if I drank water! I hope you find an answer. It could also be due to constipation. I find eating lots of fiber in the form of fruits, veggies, and oatmeal helps that for me, as well as drinking lots of water and exercising at least 15-20 minutes daily.

Rennie’s deflatine has been a big help to me for trapped wind , I know how you feel it’s horrible & really uncomfortable
