The professor of critical care medicine added that cleaning the colon with herbs and salts might lead to a deterioration in his health, especially if he was infected with a disease, such as pockets that might burst, causing peritonitis.
He recommended going to the specialist doctor immediately following flatulence, especially if it occurred suddenly and lasted for several days, because it may be a warning sign of malignant tumors in the colon and rectum.
