Belching, commonly known as burping, is the involuntary release of air from the stomach through the mouth. It is a natural bodily function that helps to relieve pressure and discomfort in the digestive system. However, excessive or frequent burping can be a sign of an underlying medical condition and can also be socially embarrassing.
There are a number of things that can cause burping, including swallowing air, eating or drinking too quickly, and consuming certain foods and beverages. If you are experiencing excessive or frequent burping, it is important to see a doctor to rule out any underlying medical conditions.
