Suggest Treatment For Acid Reflux, Choking, Numb Hands And Disturbed Sleep

Detailed answer...
Hello,
Thanks for the query.
I have read your query and understand your problem.
You seem to be suffering from GERD which is generally caused by weakening of junction between esophagus and stomach known as ( XXXXXXX ...lower esophageal sphincter ) ,
Weak junction results in flowing of stomach contents back in esophagus and throat.
Sometimes a condition called hiatus hernia can also lead to it.
The most preferred treatment is change of lifestyle,diet and medications.However some people may require surgery.
What to do....
Eat small portions
Eat light and 3 hours before dinner
Raise your headend of bed by 5-6 inches by putting blocks below
Avoid smoking
Reduce your weight
Avoid citrus fruits,pepper,tomatoes etc which irritate your damaged esophageal lining
Avoid foods which weaken XXXXXXX like peppermint,alcohol,coffee,chocolate,fatty and fried foods etc.
May take a proton pump inhibitor like PANTOPROZOLE 40 mg a day in morning on empty stomach.
If you don't find relief with these measures,then you would require a comprehensive evaluation and further management.
I hope it helps however you are most welcome to revert to me for any further query.
Best of luck
Thanks
