Is it normal I burp and burp /hiccup in public? I can't help it, it just happens and it's so loud. Was in a shop the other day and suddenly out came this burp hiccup like a short, loud, low pitched scream. But worst is the actual burp, always happens when I eat or drink. And I get multiple burps so it will be a bit gurgly. Even it happens when I close my mouth. I could try not breathing when it comes. I always thought its coz I have a good digestive system and my stomach is sensitive to acid or alkaline and starts churning it straight away, I'm not gastro-ologist though. Also I am a girl so it's not so charming as when a man acts up like a beast.

    Papaya enzymes can help you digest food. Check your diet, something isn't digesting well. Take to a nutritional specialist. You may want to keep a food journal and note what you eat and when symptoms are at their worst. This may help you figure it out.

    It's actually good to burp or fart. It means there's excess air in your stomach that you need to get rid of. And if you burp loudly or suddenly, there's no real way to control that except for burping with your mouth closed, but even then it can be loud and guttural.

    Let it all out, I say :)

    But as howaminotmyself mentioned, it might be a digestive problem, so if this continues talk to a specialised doctor.

    Well if it is a digestive problem, I've had it for 15 years or more

      That's entirely possible - get it checked out medically. You may have reflux or it may just be your diet - the food diary suggestion is a good one to try.
