Why holding in a fart makes a noise?
Gas noises in the abdomen is very normal. Even when you’re not letting it out, it still is moving along in the intestines and makes sometimes horrible gurgling sounds. Of course, it’s best to let it out…sometimes holding it in can be quite painful, but I understand that it’s not always the time and the place for that. You can try over-the counter drugs that can help reduce the amount of gas your body produces, Maalox has one with anti-gas ingredients (simethicone), as well as Gas-X tablets. This should help alleviate some of the problem…but that’s just how your body works.
