A member asked:

Slight pain in back with lots of burping for days. if it were a pe would pain get worse?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not a PE: Those are simply not symptoms of a pe. Not even close. The most important symptom, which is present in >95% of cases is shortness of breath. Pain is usually not present, but when it is, it's worse with a deep breath or cough. Belching is a GI ("stomach") symptom.
