Hello
Thanks for the query to H.C.M. Forum.
Heart burn , burps are an indication of hyper acidity or gastritis or indigestion.
May be due to .
1 Over eating or spicy or greasy foods , not taking proper rest after foods . Try raising the head of your bed 4 inches with blocks. It also might help to control stomach acid one should not drink alcohol or drinks with caffeine in them. Avoid drinking or eating for 2 hours before lie down.Also take some antacid but if severe heart burn or burps you may need drugs like proton pump inhibitors like pantoprazole .
2 Indigestion also develops due to tension or stress , so avoid such tension , if in your case.
3 Drink tepid water sip by sip or more fluid ( water or fat free milk ) also helps in such type of cases.
Good luck.
