Brief Answer:
Flatulence Dyspepsia

Detailed Answer:
Hi

Thanks for the query.

From the short description provided by you, I feel that you might be suffering with Flatulence dyspepsia. In this, there is production of gas(flatus) along with difficulty in digestion of food and burps.

The most common cause of this would be long term consumption of outside food or irregular meal timings.

Please follow these instructions:
1. Consume plenty of water (min 2 to 3 lts/day). Keep a water bottle on the working desk and keep sipping water on and off as required.
I also advise to drink a glass of water an hour before and after food to make sure of intake of adequate water.
2. Avoid excess consumption of tea/coffee/hydrogenated drinks.
3. Avoid smoking and alcohol, if any.
4. Antacids like Digene or Gelusil syp, 2tsp in 50ml of water three to four times a day half an hour before food.
5. Maintain a gap of atleast 2 hrs in between dinner and going to bed.
6. Avoid spicy and oily food for few days till the symptoms are resolved.
7. Follow regular physical exercises.

Hope this answers your query. If any further clarifications, will be happy to help.

Regards.
