A member asked:

What is causing my bloating? i constantly feel like i need to burp. my grandad, uncle and dad all have acid and gas reflux.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Bloating: Excess gas or inability to expel normal amounts of gas cause most bloating. Certain food intolerance (lactose, gassy foods)may play a role. Don't force yourself to burp as you only swallow more and more air. Taking simethicone 1/2 hour after a meal reduces gas formation. See a gastroenterologist as needed.
