Why Am I Unable To Burp?

My son had whooping caugh at Six weeks old . He has suffered from stomach pain for three years straight after eating. Even small meals make him feel full bloted and sick, he is now 19. He has never ever been able to burp could this be the reason ? He has had all sorts of tests and nothing was found but he is still having this problem. He gets a lot of noise in his throat but is never able to burp, could this be the trouble and if so what could be done to help him. ?

I would like to know whether he is having any other problems or symptoms. Is he getting distressed because of inability to burp? In my opinion not able to burp in its own does not specify any disorder
