Brief Answer:
Dysbiosis due to improper eating habits.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thank you for asking your query on HealthcareMagic.
Have gone through your short history ,The symptoms you are having is because of Dysbiosis.
Dysbiosis is a condition that occurs when there is an imbalance between good bacteria and bad bacteria in the gut.If you feel gas formation shortly after eating food then you have a dysbiosis. The harmful bacteria's in outside food kills the good bacteria's in your intestines which are responsible for proper food digestion leading to incomplete fermentation of undigested food hence causing excessive gas formation as a byproduct of fermentation. This gas first starts to bloat your digestive organs until it eventually finds one of two ways to escape. Either as belch or fart.
At present the initial test i would suggest you is to go for a stool routine and microscopy test to rule out bacterial or protozoal infection.As if the test is positive then a short term therapy with antibiotics and anti protozoal would be given.
However the only way out is to improve your eating habits.
Some suggestions are-
Start taking a good quality probiotic daily.It contains good bacteria's and would help to replenish the depleted intestinal flora.As early as the flora will replenish your problem will settle down.
Take Nexium 20 mg twice daily along with an antacid this will provide you immediate relief in belching problem.
Eat a proper diet.Prefer to take a home made simple diet(atleast for few days)
Eat a diet less in fibers.Avoid Fruits like pear oranges etc rich in fibers.
Take lots of yoghurt in diet it contains lactobacillus and is very good for digestion.
No pizza burger Meat Egg etc for few days.Avoid all fatty and heavy foods.
Follow this and you will start feeling better in a day or two.
