Burping/eructastion is mostly the ejection of swallowed air,the air may be swallowed while talking,drinking fluids, smoking,eating or chewing gum.He needs to talk to his physician/PCP who can assess and guide him regarding this. IBS,GERD, anxiety and sleeping with a open mouth may rarely cause repeated burping.
