What Causes Burping Along With Abdominal Discomfort?

Hi! My husband is experiencing loud gurgling sounds in his lower left abdomin. As well as high pressure in his bowel but fails to have a bowel movement. He has pain at a constant 4 when still but escalates to an 8 when he moves. He cannot sit or lay down properly. He is constantly burping especially at night. This has been happening for about 2+ weeks. He is diabetic n 60 yrs old n has many bladder infections within the coarse of a year.

Hello,

Most probably it could be due to gastritis.

Avoid spicy foods.

You can take antacids like pantoprazole or omeprazole for symptomatic relief.

If symptoms persist you can consult a gastroenterologist and plan for an ultrasound and endoscopy.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
