What Causes Abdominal Pain With Burping And Increased Saliva?
Hi. I am a 25-year-old female. I am basically healthy, and weight about 140 lbs, being about 5'7". I have been suffering from spasms in my abdomen that cause weird hiccups/burps, which in turn lead to saliva production in my mouth. The saliva is clear but often quite bubbly. I also suffer from a feeling of cold tension in my abdomen sometimes. Thanks in advance for any advice.

Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Weird spasm with hiccoughs/ burps can be a problem in the liver/ gall bladder/ anything under the diaphragm.
This needs to be investigated by ultrasonography and / or CT scan.
Excessive salivation is usually due to a normal ''reflex-mechanism'' of the body , so do not worry about it.
The feeling of cold tension indicates inflammatory process.
