What Can Cause Burping Throughout The Day While Suffering From Dementia?

Mhy husband has dementia and he burps all day. He sits in front of the TV all day long and sleeps at night in his recliner with the TV on all night. I can hear him burp in the back of the house. He is so use to it he does not even realize what he is doing.

Hello,

Dementia people may also be suffering from cognitive disorders, memory problems, autonomic disturbance etc.

Burping due to indigestion or SIBO or paralytic ileum etc.

In case of alcoholic or anemia patients may also develop the same symptoms.

Avoid spicy food and alcohol avoid smoking and caffeine drinks. Use tablet pantoprazole before breakfast for one week. Take soft diet.

If symptoms not improved please consult your physician he will examine and treat you accordingly.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
