Belching
What to Expect at your Health Care Provider's Office
The medical history will be obtained and a physical examination will be performed.
Medical history questions may include:- Is this the first time that this has occurred?
- Is there a pattern to occurrences?
- Does it occur when nervous?
- Does it occur after certain foods or beverages?
- What other symptoms are present?
Diagnostic tests will be determined by the findings of physical examination and by what additional signs or symptoms, if any, accompany the belching.
After seeing your health care provider:
If a diagnosis was made by your health care provider as the cause of persistent belching, you may want to note that diagnosis in your personal medical record.
