How Can Acid Reflux And Excessive Burping Be Treated?

I have been having extreme heart burn - acid reflux. Last night it was so bad that I vomited for about 5 minutes. Today it took a lot of concentration and trying to calm my stomach to avoid vomiting again. My stomach seems constantly upset and feels like there is a big lump of tar in it. Lying down and leaning over forward makes it worse. I have also been burping more than usual.

2) Avoid late night foods and have proper sleep.
3) Raise head side of your by 2-3 inches.
