It is disliked to perform Istinja' (washing the private parts) for flatulence because it involves exaggeration. However, if flatulence exits after performing Wudu' (ablution), the Wudu' becomes invalidated by consensus. Washing the front and back private parts is not called Wudu'; rather, it is called Istinja' with water or Istijmar with stones and the like.
