Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi for the last two weeks I ve been belching excessively. Even if I barely eat, I still belch. The acid is burning my throat and my voice is hoarse. I changed my diet to foods that aren t acidic and it hasn t helped. When I bend over I throw up a little in my mouth, too. Even if I ate a meal 6 hours ago, I ll still be belching it up. What could this be?
