"Effective Ways to Reduce Excessive Burping"
Burping can be caused by various factors, including swallowing excess air, supragastric belching, and gastric belching. To reduce burping, try releasing the burp slowly instead of forcefully, avoid behaviors that increase air swallowing (such as using straws, chewing gum, or smoking), eat slowly, identify food or beverage triggers, treat postnasal drip, ensure properly fitted dentures, review daily medications, and consider medication to reduce stomach acid. If the issue persists, consult a gastroenterologist for further evaluation and potential treatment options.
