Brief Answer:
Not able to burp is of no concerns

Detailed Answer:
Hello! Thanks for putting your query in HCM. I am a Gastroenterologist (DM). It appears that you have reflux disease or cardiac disease. SO I will suggest you to visit a doctor who may advise for some test for heart and endoscopy examination for confirming the diagnosis. Burping usually occurs because food stay for a longer period of time then usual and bacteria present over there try to digest them and produce a foul smell gas which comes out during burps. So if it is not there then it is good.
I hope I have answered your query and this will help you. If you have any further query I will be happy to answer that too. Remain in touch and get-well soon.
