Brief Answer:
Due to gastric regurgitation
Detailed Answer:
Dear Ms. XXXXXXX
Greetings!
Welcome to Healthcare-Magic.
I do understand your problem. The
belching is due to gastric regurgitation and repeated relaxation of lower esophageal sphincter.
I suggest the following to ease your problem.
1. Avoid lying down immediately after consumption of food or fluids.
2. Avoid excessive tea, coffee, carbonated beverages consumption, which provoke relaxation of lower esophageal sphincter.
3. Avoid smoking, alcohol intake in case if you have any habit for next few days.
4. Pantaprazole and
domperidone combination,
over the counter medication shall be beneficial in reducing the belching to greater extent.
5. Also Antacid containing
Simethicone will be hugely beneficial.
The above measures along with the medications advised shall surely provide you much needed relief from belching. In case if belching still persists, I would suggest you to meet your Gastroenterologist and schedule Upper GI
endoscopy to rule out any abnormalities.
Do revert back to me in case if you need further information or clarification on this. I would be glad to support you.
Wish you great health. Take care.

Dr. T. Shobha Deepak
