Does Chewing Gum Cause Burping?
Two nights ago I woke up with a sharp pain in my chest and had difficulty breathing. The pain subdued however the next day I was experiencing constant burping (every couple of minutes) it feels as though something is stuck. I read online that chewing gum can cause burping.

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern excessive burping could be due to swallowing air this is the common cause second it could be due to diet taken that forms the flatus (Not exactly ) in another word it could be hyperacidity or dyspepsia chewing gum could be the cause too but it is not the disease condition it self unless have some infection in GI tract hope this information helps
