    Sounds like a partial clog in the horizontal line in the wall that should be snaked out.
    Remove the "J" bend from the trap and send a snake up into the wall.(see image). You will run into9 a bend about 8 inches in bbut once around that you only have 6 more feet of snake to run out. After you replace the trap flush with a bowl full of hot water. Good luck and thank you for rating my answer. Tom
