Flatulence is passing gas from the digestive system out of the back passage. It's more commonly known as 'passing wind', or 'farting'.Excessive flatulence can be caused by swallowing more air than usual or eating food that's difficult to digest. It can also be related to an underlying health problem affecting the digestive system.
