Hi,I am Dr. Subhankar Chakraborty (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Burping Which Increases In The Evenings, Difficulty To Walk Or Exercise Much Due To Arthritis In Knee. Possible Gastroenteritis?
I have started burping a lot, mainly in the evenings after dinner. Slight regurgitation but not much. In the mornings the symptoms are not so strong but still there. I am 70 years old, and have arthritis in my knees, which inhibits my ability to take walks and exercise very much. Up until two years ago I was very active and still run a business. Most people think I am around 60. I am very worried that I have developed gastroenteritis or something similar.
I went through your description. I suggest you not to worry too much. You look 60 and actually you are 70! Really heartening. That suggests how fit you are. Andhow much self esteem you have. I really like your attitude.
Regarding your burping. Burping is normal. But in excess, it should be watched. Burping happens due to acidity and gastric derangement. Exercise is one way to cure it. There are other ways too. Please observe your food habits. Consumption of food which is hard for digestion, untimely food habit, Oil rich food, junk foods, food habit in between meals, etc all these can cause gastric derangements.
I suggest you to have 5 to 10 boiled garlic pieces along with breakfast and dinner. Ginger decoction should help immensely.
Hope this answers your doubts. Available for further clarifications. Good luck.
