Flatulence: Some people claim beano helps. Just a thought, and it is over the counter. Also reconsider the antacids like Pepcid (famotidine) and mylanta.

Question 2

what are some natural remedies for slow digestion? i have all the symptoms of slow digestion; bloating, stomachache, my stomach feels heavy even when i have only eaten a small portion of food, plus more. i researched home remedies and i read about eating

Accepted Answer

Many : Many people use aloe vera. Another natural remedy is papain, which is an enzyme that helps digest proteins. Also guar gum (sterculia)  is a fiber that regulates the bodyâ€™s absorption thus aiding in digestion.
Lastly make sure you see your doctor for a complete work up and evaluation of your stomach complaints, there may be something more serious than digestion issues.
All the best.

Question 4

what's the best or easiest way to tell if you have aerophagia? can it cause burping all day without bloating?

Yes: Aerophagia is associated with chewing gum, smoking, drinking carbonated drinks, eating too fast, CPAP air pressure (if it is too high) and wearing loose dentures. 
Aerophagia is a common cause of gas in the esophagus or stomach and belching.Because there is a regular belching may not have bloating of the abdomen.

Question 5

ive had constant bloating that comes out in the form of constant unbareable burping making me almost puke sometimes because so much air comes out?

Accepted Answer

Need to examine: It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without examining you and your symptoms warrant evaluation by a physician. It is possible that you are swallowing air as a nervous habit and that comes out as burping. You may consult this site for more information on this topic: https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/gas-and-gas-pains/in-depth/gas-and-gas-pains/art-20044739
Wish you good health! - Have a diet rich in fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, milk and milk products, nuts, beans, legumes, lentils and small amounts of lean meats. Avoid saturated fats. Drink enough water daily, so that your urine is mostly colorless. Exercise at least 150 minutes/week and increase the intensity of exercise gradually. Do not use tobacco, alcohol, weed or street drugs in any form. 
Practice safe sex, if you have sex.

Question 6

wondering if i should be worried ... ive had bloating for 2weeks now and also very frequent burping for longer. im nauseous everyday since 2.weeks ago. ?

Accepted Answer

Face to Face...: Two week history of bloating, burping with daily nausea requires some attention. Could be from changes in Foods, Drinks, Medications, Supplements... At this point a Face to Face with some Physical Examination with the PCP is very important  in providing the necessary answers.

Question 7

thirty five yr old female. would probiotics be helpful for me (digestion, bloating, etc.)?

Accepted Answer

Could be: Probiotics can certainly help many with these issues. You should also try to identify which, if any, foods are bothering you. Avoid artificial sweeteners as these always make symptoms worse.

Question 8

what causes a gurling tummy, bloating, and burps?

Accepted Answer

Many things: This is a problem that requires a face-to-face meeting with your doctor.  In that meeting, your doctor will listen to you, perform a throrough examination and possibly order labs or other tests. Based on this information, he/she will be able to tell you what's wrong and what to do about it.

Question 9

does victoza (liraglutide) cause burping and bloating ?

Accepted Answer

Need more info: Most pharmacies when you fill your prescription will give you a printout of all the "do's  &amp; don't's" &amp; side effects. Look it over. Victoza (liraglutide) does have a warning for possible pancreas and GI side effects. You symptoms may oir may not be part of that picture. I would advise you to speak it over with the physician who prescribed Victoza (liraglutide) for you.

Question 10

is it normal to have discharge after sex with bloating/ burping ?

Accepted Answer

Seems unlikely: Sex should not affect your GI system and lead to burping.
