Question 1

what are the causes of sour burps?

Accepted Answer

GERD versus burping?: Involuntary belching after a meal is normal, caused by release of swallowed gas after distension of the stomach with food. Magenblase syndrome is postprandial epigastric fullness &amp; bloating, relieved by belching. Aerophagia (accumulation of gas due to air swallowing) is common with anxiety, hypersalivation from gum chewing, smoking, drinking, oral irritation. Both acid &amp; bile reflux possible too.

Question 2

sour burps, a lot of gas and loose bowels, what could cause this?

Accepted Answer

Maybe not just gas: Bloating, irregular stools, and fullness may reflect diet (check your fiber intake), alterations in the population of healthy gut flora we each carry, food intolerances, maldigestion due to problems of the small intestine, pancreas, or biliary tree, changes in GI motility (how well your GI tract mixes and moves food along), various infections, and even irritable bowel syndrome. Testing is easy.

Question 3

could constant burping, bloating, and chest pain with no sour taste in mouth be caused by low stomach acid?

Accepted Answer

: The symptoms you describe are not likely caused by low amounts of acid in the stomach. The symptoms you describe, however, are often seen in individuals with gastroesophageal reflux. There are other possibilities as well that may need explored.

Question 4

what causes burping?

Accepted Answer

See below.: Burping is usually caused by swallowing a lot of air while eating or drinking. If it is associated with other symptoms, such as pain, nausea, decreased appetite or weight loss, it may be caused by reflux, anxiety, gallstones, ulcers, among others causes. If you are having excess burping, especially with any of these symptoms, please discuss this with your doctor.

Question 5

what are the causes of trapped burps/gas?

Accepted Answer

Swallowing: Air in your stomach comes from something you ingested - carbonated beverage for example - or from air you have swallowed. These gases are normally trapped by a sphincter which closes off your lower esophagus from your stomach.

Question 6

what causes having vomit in burps?

Accepted Answer

Burping or vomiting?: The vomiting reflex is controlled by two units in the brain medulla--one receives nerve impulses from the GI tract, the other is a chemical receptor. Both have nerve connections to not only the GI tract (pharynx, mesenteric vessels, bile ducts) but also from brain corticobulbar areas that mediate smells, sights, &amp; taste. Thus, vomiting apparatus responds to a variety of GI &amp; brain inputs.

Question 7

what causes babies the need to burp?

Accepted Answer

Swallowed air: Babies often swallow air during feeding.  Depending on your baby you should burp between sides (if breastfeeding) or about halfway through if bottle feeding.  This removes the air from the baby's stomach and allows them to finish eating comfortably.  You want to make sure that at the end of a feeding the stomach is filled with milk not air!
