Your burping and pain in upper abdomen raise the possibility of an Acid reflux(sometimes called GERD). You should visit your PCP for treatment. Alternatively, try a 2 week course of an antacid like Pepcid which is available over the counter. A stronger medicine called PPI may be needed in case Pepcid did not eliminate the problem.
