Is it normal to still fart after pooping?

Yep.Totally normal

Yes—it's normal to pass gas after pooping. Your bowel can keep moving gas along even after you've finished on the toilet.

Pooping doesn’t necessarily clear out every pocket of gas. As your intestines keep moving, more gas can make its way out—sometimes right after you stand up, because apparently the timing matters to your body.

Lots of people fart after a bowel movement, and it’s usually nothing to worry about. If it comes with ongoing pain, major bloating, or a lasting change in your bowel habits, it’s worth checking in with a healthcare professional.
