What causes a person to burp the odor of very strong, rotten stomach acid?

Q: This is not a joke. He burps at least 5 to 10 times per hour and it is very offensive. The odor is nauseating and it makes me feel like I am going to throw up. It smells like rotten stomach acid. Now he passes rotten smelling gas and the odor stays in his underwear. Its rancid! I can smell his acidy gas odor in my recliner chair where he sat last evening for 2 hours watching TV. I am seriously thinking about throwing it out. I have smelled some pretty rotten things before because I am a nurse, but this is way out of anything I have ever seen. Where do you think the problem is. I know it is not normal to burp up stomach acid over and over and over and he keeps saying “excuse me”. Do you think he may have some type of digestive disorder?

A: Sounds like a couple of things…but the most obvious to me is the small intestine’s bacterial overgrowth prematurely fermenting food. The most common cause of bad breath is the poor digestion of food. This results in undigested food being fermented in the intestines. The odor is capable of escaping back up through the mouth from the intestinal tract….or it can cause an uncomfortable bloating in the abdominal region and lead to flatulence.Some other causes: Acid Reflux Disease, ulcers, Irritable Bowel Syndrome, Crohn’s Disease, even Diabetes. Advise the gentleman to have a G.I. series performed if he hasn’t already.I’ve heard of people using baking soda and water as a home remedy when the cramps and foul-smelling gas explusion begins. Best of luck – that’s has got to be a real pain to experience and to be around.
