Detailed Answer:
Hello
My name is Dr Muhammad Ali Rauf & i will look into your problem.
I have gone through your query and would try to help you in the best possible way. Most common causes for burping include indigestion, hiatus hernia, H. Pylori associated ulcer, GERD or excess production of gas by intestinal microorganisms. You need to get evaluated. I would suggest you to get an appointment for a gastroenterologist. He is specialized is GIT pathologies. He will run some tests like upper GI endoscopy, stool examination, Urea breath test to establish baseline results. Further treatment will depend upon results.
Meanwhile if i were your treating doctor then i would have advised following things:
- Sleep with raised head
- Take small bites when you eat.
- Chew food with your mouth closed.
- Add mint to your drinking water
- Gasex tablets can reduce gas
- Anti emetic like metoclopramide tablet will increase gastric motility and reduce gas formation in stomach.
- omeprazole one daily for 7 days (you might need prescription for this medicine)
> AVOID:
- fatty foods, spicy foods,
- fried foods, coffee (very important!),
- alcohol, chocolate, orange juices.
- Don't take calcium carbonate.
- carbonated drinks
- smoking(if you do)
Hope I have answered your query. If you have any further questions I will be happy to help if not then don't forget to close the discussion and rate it.
