Frequent Burping? It Might Be a Hiatal Hernia

According to Dr. Vikki Petersen, burping is a common symptom of Hiatal Hernia Syndrome. It can become frequent and disruptive, often due to a weakened lower esophageal sphincter, swallowing air, impaired gastric emptying, or refluxing acid.

“If you’re experiencing chronic burping, it’s essential to address the root cause. Depending on the type of hiatal hernia, burping may be accompanied by heartburn, bloating, or nausea. If you’re struggling with persistent burping, consider consulting with Dr. Petersen’s team by calling 727-335-0400.
