Detailed Answer:
Hi

Thanks for posting the query

After going through the query, I do understand that, you are suffering from Gastro-Oesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD). As you are already got educated about your problem from the internet, my work has been made simpler. I doubt any allergy.

1. The symptoms could have started or increased after taking pain relievers for your broken foot. This can worsen when the physical activities are reduced. TMJ issues cannot be linked to the above problem.

2. As Pepcid and Gasex tablets are not effective for you, proton pump inhibitors (such as omeprazole/pantoperazole/lanzoperazole/esomeprazole) have to be considered as the next best option. Also, you would require prokinetics such as metochlopramide for increasing the gastric motility and preventing the reflux of the acid from the stomach into the throat.

3. Eat small, frequent meals. Avoid chilled food and beverages, coffee, tea, citrus fruits and fizzy drinks.

4. Also, avoid lying down immediately after taking your food.

5. Raise the head end of the bed and lie down to the left. This position prevents the regurgitation of the acid contents into the oesophagus and reduces the burning sensation.

Hope this answers your query; I will be available for the follow-up queries.
