A member asked:

Constant throat burping. little ones. sometimes feels like it takes breath away and something stuck. or have to force burp out. what is this ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Aerophagia: Often this is due to air swallowing(aerophagia) and the more you make yourself burp,the more you swallow air. Drinking hot water helps break down gas bubbles and taking simethicone after a meal helps prevent gas accumulation. If you have further concerns, a gastroenterologist is best to evaluale and advise you.
