Gastroenterologist Questions Burping

Why do I have constant and loud burping?

I am a 36 year old man and I am suffering from constant and loud burping that lasts almost the entire day. It becomes more when I finish eating my meals but is almost there full day. What could be the reason for the same?

Air is always swallowed along with food or drink, so burping after meals is normal. When it happens all day without meals, then this is usually caused by air-swallowing without being conscious of it. Air is swallowed just before the burping without the patient realizing it. When one is distracted, the burping ceases. A good GI doc can make a proper diagnosis.
You need to see a gastroenterologist to evaluate for possible conditions like reflux, peptic ulcer, or other pathology. It may be helpful to get an EGD.

Would be most concerned about reflex disease, possibly arophagia.
It seems like GERD. You should be evaluated for conditions like Barrett’s esophagus and ulcers, so please visit your Gastroenterologist.
Burping can be related to swallowing air; incoordination of esophagus contractions; irritation or inflammation of the esophagus, stomach, or duodenum; ulcers; infection with parasites or Helicobacter pylori bacteria; medications; alcohol; excess carbonated beverages; and others. It's worth seeing MD regarding the symptom.
