Hello, thanks for posting on HCM.
Excessive belching or any indigestion is comes under term called as dyspepsia.
There are multiple causes of this. It could be because of GERD or peptic ulcer or gastritis or H. pylori infection in stomach.
For now I would advise you to try taking tab pantoprazole 40mg on morning empty stomach and observe whether symptoms are improving. You can also try taking antacid syrups which will cause relief if suffering from gastritis.
If it does not help you might need to consult a gastroenterologist who will perform an endoscopy on you to visually see the problem, off course if you haven’t yet consulted a gastroenterologist.
I hope with above advice you will feel relief.
I hope I have given satisfactory answer to your query, if you still have any more query kindly write back to me and I will be happy to help.
Thank you
