Trapped wind

Hi all! I haven't been active on here for quite sometime. I'm writing today to see if any of you has good suggestions for getting rid of trapped wind? It's making my life awkward to be bloated and particularly at night time when I'm asleep I make the bedroom stink and my other half has to leave and sleep in the guest room. I'm sure I'm not the only one with this embarrassing problem and I don't know who to talk to, so I'm hoping that by posting here anonymously someone can give me advice. I'd like my love life back!!

A lot of prepackaged food contains milk or milk products, and for the lactose intolerent that can cause a lot of grief. You can try taking a lactase enzyme tablet or chewable before each meal. They're sold over the counter. If the gas goes away, you know what the problem is. If not, no harm done. "
