What Causes Flatulence And Burping After Eating?

Good Day to you Doctor. I eat my food between 10:00 and 10:30 pm and after about 15 minutes go to bed. I get flautulence and blurping associated with light paing between 3:30 am and 5:00 am in the morning. After the flautulence and blurping I feel better and go back to sleep. But in the last week, even after flautulence and blurping and drinking some water, the pain persists and am not getting sleep after that. Doctor, kindly let me know what this condition is due to ?

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have flatulence and burping after eating which could be two main reasons. First of all it could be gastroesophageal reflux disease, secondly it is due to intestinal infection. Need not to worry. I would suggest you to take ant acids such as Omeprazole along with proton pump inhibitors such as Ranitidine. You should take preventive measures such as you should not sleep immediately after dinner wait at least an hour and then you should go to bed. Avoid large meals intake. You should take small but frequent meals. Drink plenty of water. Avoid hot and spicy foods. Drink plenty of water and you should exercise daily. Visit ENT specialist once and get it examined. Start treatment after proper diagnosis.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
