Hi, thank you for trusting and sharing concerns about Frequent belching after eating is a sign of illness? to Vinmec Health System.
Your symptoms are related to gastroesophageal reflux disease . There is a sphincter between the esophagus and the stomach that prevents food from coming up from the stomach. Normally, this sphincter opens only when we swallow to move food down to the stomach. Causes of reflux: Weakening of the lower esophageal sphincter, diaphragmatic hernia, stagnation of food in the stomach (gastritis, gastric cancer, pyloric stenosis..), sudden increase in intra-abdominal pressure. You should see a gastroenterologist for more specific treatment advice. Best regards!
