When my 8 yr old grandson burps it smrlls like rotten eggs why?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See below: It is possible that he has slow stomach transit and food sits in in his stomach longer causing more gas. There are also other anatomical abnormalities that can cause foul breath and reflux can do this too. Poor mouth hygiene (tooth brushing) could be a cause too. See you doctor for an evaluation.
