Frequent Burping and Prolonged Burps: What Could It Indicate?
Hi everyone,
I've been experiencing frequent burping throughout the day, and occasionally, my burps extend for about 2-3 seconds, almost sounding like a cry. It’s been happening quite regularly, and I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced something similar or knows what could be causing this?
Is this a symptom of any particular condition or disease that I should be aware of? Should I be concerned and seek medical advice? I appreciate any insights or personal experiences you can share.
Thanks in advance!

Have you talked to your doctor about the burping? Has it been happening for a prolonged period of time?
I have exocrine pancreatic insufficiency which was being successfully with Zenpep. I developed terrible burping in June of this year that was way worse than anything I’ve ever had. The burps had a yeasty taste and were so constant that I was exhausted. I took pepto bismal for them and it helped some. The dr suggested that I might have developed SIBO with an overgrowth of bacteria in the small intestine. He prescribed a 2 week dose of Xifaxan. It WORKED!!!! The burping went away within a few days. Actually it was manageable after one day on the meds. I’ve had no return of symptoms in the month since I was on it. The dr said I might need another course of the rx in the future if it comes back.

Hey There, I'm was wondering if you have any other symptoms? I have IBS-C and when I have a flare up I have a lot of burping. IBS-C is pain in my sides from colon spasms and constipation. When the IBS calms down....the burping does too. Praying for you and God Bless You. Keep me posted.
