Suffering From Heart Burns, Antacids Not Working. All Tests Normal. Possible Reason?
Hi Doc i am 30 year old male pt from last 3 to 4 months i have been suffering from heart burns i have been taking antacids and its not working actually i have seen 3 doctors and not cured till now when i stretch my arms inwards ( like if i am hugging someone ) the pain is produced so doctors thought its musculo skeletal pain they did chest xray and ekg and blood tests everything came out normal
As per the history mentioned, the problem seems to be related musculoskeletal system and I would like to know few more questions. Do you feel stiffness in lower back or any other part in late night or early morning? Do you ever had any joint swelling, any heel pain, skin disease, blood in stools? Get your fasting ESR done and report me.
Wish you early recovery
