The causes of frequent belching (burping) of lung cancer usually include overfeeding, metastasis in digestive tract and pleural metastasis, etc., which need to be treated in time once discovered.
1. Belching refers to the sound made by the gas in the stomach which is reversed upward and discharged in the throat. Frequent belching is usually caused by the reflux of gas in the stomach due to overeating or overfeeding, and as the digestive function of lung cancer patients themselves is relatively poor, the dietary discomfort can easily cause frequent belching symptoms.
2. If the cancer cells have metastasized to the digestive tract, the digestive function of the metastasized area may decrease, which may cause frequent belching.
3. If the cancer cells have metastasized to the pleura, the metastatic foci on the pleura will stimulate the diaphragm located under the pleura, thus causing frequent belching symptoms.
When lung cancer patients experience frequent belching, it is recommended to go to the hospital in time to find out the cause.
