Dear,
Dear Friends,
  
  I am 38 Years Male from India.

  I have Severe Gas Problem for past Six months. I already took endascopy. Local doctor says there is no problem. But the gas problem still remains. The Problem Aggrivates in the evening.
I Frequently burped.


  Now the food struck in my throat, frequent swallowing of saliva. While swallowing I fell the hard swallowing sound in the ears and back of the head and Hard to swallow.

  Continiuosly mucus comes from the throat and it irritate my throat.

  The Doctor Prescribed Lansoprozole and antacids for one months. But still I have the same problem. If I burped I feel better for 2 - 3 Minitues.



Please Advice a suitable remmedy for the above problem

Thanking You

Did the doctor say that you might possibly have a partially enclosed esophagus? That's what I have. Sometimes, I can get air trapped between food going down and it's excruciating. TI can't swallow the food and the only way to get it out is to throw up. I get mucus in my throat and nauseated. The only relief is to throw up. Ask your doctor if you had a ringed esophagus. My gastro doc streched mine open. Have you been to more than one doctor? I'd get another opinion if I were you. sorry this isn't more informative. I hope you feel better soon.

is it enclosed esophagus curable? what action i have to take?

If I bend backward, I feel better. If I take more sweets I feel better.

The partially enclosed esophagus can be stretched during an endoscopy. After having it done, I no longer had problems with swallowing and trapped air. That was three years ago, and I have the problem again, so I guess it's not a permanent fix. Bending backward may stretch things inside, but I don't have  clue how eating sweets could help.

Anyway, hope you find out what's causing your problems. Seek a second opinion if you can, a gastroenterologist. Good luck and I hope you feel better soon!
