1. Bloating and Belching
Frequent swallowing is common with a sore throat or when stomach acid begins to back up into the esophagus. This may lead to swallowing more air, a feeling of being bloated, and frequent belching. This bloating and belching may also be related to inflammation of the stomach lining caused by H. Pylori the bacterium responsible for some stomach ulcers. Quick fixes to reduce belching include:
- Eating and drinking slowly
- Avoid Carbonation and Alcohol
- Avoid gum and hard candy
- Don’t smoke
- Ensure your dentures fit (poorly fitting dentures can cause you to swallow excess air when you eat and drink.)
- Treat heartburn
