Suggest Treatment For Chronic Acid Reflux, Bloating And Dull Ache Below The Breastbone
Early intervention through Gastrointestinal endoscopy is mandatory
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Many of your symptoms point to underlying chronic acid reflux symptoms. This condition needs confirmation through an appropriate test called Upper Gastrointestinal endoscopy.
A biopsy should also be performed to rule out H Pylori Gastritis. Based on test results, further management can be carried out.
Gastritis of various causes can be treated with oral medications alone. Whereas few selective cases of acid reflux can be treated by surgical intervention.
Long-term acid reflux if unchecked can lead to cancerous changes in the stomach.
Meanwhile, a short course of oral medication like Pantoprazole can be considered to minimise the symptoms.
Please check with your physician if he shares my view and if can prescribe these medications and tests in your case to determine further course of action.
