Anyone Burping Whenever Stretching Through The Pain Or Getting Pressed On The Painful Area (like My Upper Back)?

A MyChronicPainTeam Member asked a question 💭
Cape Town, ZA

Under my right shoulder blade that's where my chronic pain is. If I'm pressed there while getting massaged; then I burp. Sometimes when I stretch into the pain there; then I burp; even when I'm rubbed vigorously which I enjoy; then I burp. Any touch on the pain leads to a release of air.
