Feeling like I need to burp or something pressing against my

I have this too.  It feels like there is an air bubble in your throat, but you can't burp.  Doesn't hurt, but it's annoying??  It called GERD. Enjoy.

in response to the "stop eating gluten" idea:

I am grain free (for months now, i.e. no gluten) and I still encounter this problem. seems to be getting worse, generally when i try to sleep at night. the air bubble never goes away! and when i can manage to burp, it just comes right back.

I am having the same problem. Like a lump of air is stuck in my throat and as much as i want to let it oit by burping i cant!!! Its bothering me and googling it only gives people with the same problems but no answer on how ro get rid of this issue. Help!!!

try this.... prepare medium size potato chopped into small slices... soak in a glass of water for 24 hrs..... drink the water of the soaked potato in the morning 10 mins b4 having ur breakfast..... (prepare the soaked potato in the morning).... i never believed at first, but when i tried it for almost 2 wks,.... the problem is gone.....

It's GERD. I have had GERD for about five years and this feeling comes and goes. It's like a pressure in your throat right above the hollow of your throat. If you press there it gets worse. Some times if you burp it relieves the pressure for a short time but then it comes back. The acid has backed up and damaged your esophagus and it has caused that muscle to contract. There's no acid feeling because the contracted muscle is holding in down. It's worse at night because lying horizontal causes gravity to take effect and allow things to natural back up making the muscle contract even more to try to hold it down. Lying on your right side and slightly elevated helps because gravity forces the stomach contents through the natural course of your digestive system. You can also temporarily relieve the pressure by pressing your thumbs just under your chin behind your chin bone hold it for 30 seconds, then while still pressing tip your head back until you are looking straight up and your neck is fully extended you will feel the muscle start to relax at that point remove your thumbs from pressing into the chin and hold this position for another 30 seconds. The pressure will get worse while you are counting but once you straighten your head up it releases that muscle and you get temporary relief. I think you are using the pressure points to relax that muscle. Burping will also allow for temporary relief because burping aids in the digestive process and forces the contents of your stomach down. Like a pressure valve. Controlling your GERD and your acid reflux is the only thing that will give you long term relief. If you are currently being treated for GERD mention this to your doctor they may need to change the dosage on your meds. If you are being treat led for acid reflux make sure that you mention this to your doctor because they may need to diagnose you with GERD and change your meds. Remember you can have acid reflux without having GERD, but acid reflux is a symptom of GERD. I understand acid reflux to be the first stage of GERD. Some people can control it before it ever progresses to being officially GERD. Hope this helps a little and at least gives you comfort for what you are feeling but over the counter meds will only work for so long. You need to talk to your dr and get some meds and a health plan to control it.

its anxiety, google globus sensation

I have the burping sensation all day long, i do lean over while sitting down an that does help me to burp, an i have relief for a few minutes but then it starts again. I do have diabetes but i have never had this before, it feels like a virus or something.... i am continually trying to burp or have someone to pat me on the back, my back hurts between the shoulder blades an i do go to the chiropractor which i will be going tomorrow, im gonna ask him is it something with the back being out.... i have had this since last Friday..... I don't no if pepcid will help but I think I will give that a try

 

Sounds like hiatus hernia and it's treated like Gert and don't lie down flT be upright on pillow

I have Gastroparesis and gerd and found out that the pressure that is similar to the pushing on the throat. Makes me wanna vomit. The only thing that actually makes it go away is marijuana. Good sh*t only though get medicated. I prefer dabs. It's easier and it's not as loud.

This is exactly what is happening to me! I found last night if i throw up it helps it go away and i am able to go to sleep. Before I was afraid to sleep i would make my boyfriend stay up with me or until i went to sleep he then could go to sleep. I feel as if i am being a big baby because I want him to hold me!

have you found cure for this ?
Pls share

Have you tried gaviscon? That sounds like a symptom of GERD.

I had this problem 6 months ago and searched the internet a long time. It appeared to be acid reflux and so I took nexium for 14 days. It worked!!! The burping feeling went away and the pressure above my adams apple went away. I just started experiencing it again in the last few days and I am back on Nexium. Expect it to go away shortly. Hope this helps.

that is exactly what acid reflux can do to you

Went searching for help and this site. I have this problem my acid reflux is under control, but I wake up with this need to burb. Yes like I have a balloon in mt throat, feeling like if I could just burb. At the same time my heart is beating hard. I have drinking herbal tea can bring burbs also standing, moving around. I drink chamomile and ginger tea and chamomile and lavender tea. Iced or hot. I'd prefer black tea but I'm tired of this. So glad there are others with the same/ similar problem
