What Could Be The Cause For Foamy Burps?

I have lung and liver cancer and tonight my burps were foamy and I did end up upchucking. I think it was from me eating junk today, which I usually don t eat, being on chemo nothing tastes good, so I usually don t eat much. FYI I did have esophageal cancer last summer.

Hi,

Thanks for writing to HCM.

It can either be due to perforation in your esophagus due to the cancer or due to connection between your bronchus and esophagus due to lung cancer...

You need to revisit your doctor as soon as possible as this can lead to serious chest infection...
