Imagine no more bloating, pain, or gurgles.
…Dr. Holmes is one of only a handful of physicians in the eastern U.S. providing “throatox” botox injections to help patients suffering from “no burp” — also known as Retrograde Cricopharyngeus Dysfunction (R-CPD).
While belching or burping is characterized as a day-to-day bodily function, for an unknown number of people, it’s a relief they never experience.
Instead, a big meal or carbonated beverage sets off a chain of gastric unpleasantries: bloating, searing pain in the esophagus, and excessive flatulence. And of course, the gurgling, a sound reminiscent of croaking frogs that seems to come from the throat.
Retrograde Cricopharyngeus Dysfunction (R-CPD) is a disorder where the cricopharyngeus muscle fails to relax to allow the upward passage of gas, and results in an inability to burp/belch.
Many people in the No Burp community have found relief from botox injected into the cricopharyngeus muscle at the opening of the esophagus. Dr. Holmes is one of only a handful of physicians in the eastern U.S. providing Botox injections to no burp sufferers. Popularly known as “throatox,” these injections can provide significant relief from the symptoms of R-CPD.
