A common cause of this is swallowing too much air while drinking fluids or eating. Also forcing yourself to belch causes one to build up gas and make them want to belch more causing a vicious circle. Don't chew gum,gulp liquids or eat too rapidly. Taking simethicone 1/2 hour after a meal prevents gas buildup.
