Abstract in brief

Retrograde cricopharyngeus dysfunction (RCPD) is a condition where the muscles in the throat can't relax properly to allow burping, causing symptoms like bloating and social awkwardness.
A survey of nearly 200 individuals in an online community revealed that RCPD significantly impacts daily life, with many experiencing embarrassment, anxiety, relationship issues, and work disruptions related to their symptoms.
Despite its effects, RCPD is not well known among healthcare providers, leading to underdiagnosis and limited treatment options, highlighting the need for increased awareness and understanding of the condition.]
