What Is the Reason for My Continuous Burping?

Posted By Amul (Chicago, Illinois, Usa) on 02/02/2012

Hi Ted, I have been suffering from continuous burping for last 6-7 years. Recently it is getting worse and I also feel some kind of discomfort in sternum too. After I eat or drink, I get burps immediately, and also always feel like my stomach is full of gas. Even if I drink a sip of water, I immediately get the burp. Looks like my stomach is always filled with air. So, three four months before, I have seen the doctor. I was asked to take antacids, which did not work. Then, my H. Pylori test was positive and I was asked to take antibiotics. I first thought, my acidity and burping will go away, after I take the antibiotics, but did not happen that way. I took all these medications, but nothing helped.

Could you please tell me the reason why I get so many burps. Is it really a acidity or I may have some other digestive issue, which makes a lot of gas in stomach. Moreover, I do not have constipation or diarrhea. Could you please advice me the home remedy which may help me control this.

Thanks! Amul

Have you ever tried Mastic Gum? It comes in a capsule. Great for digestive problems. Not sure if it will help burping, I found relief with it.

Hello there, If you follow eastern accupoints, etc. it seems that burping is caused by gallbladder congestion.
