Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Most common cause for upper GI spasm is GERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease).
So better to follow these steps for faster relief infection GERD and spasm.
1. Avoid stress and tension, be relax and calm.
2. Avoid hot and spicy food. Avoid junk food.
3. Avoid large meals, instead take frequent small meals.
4. Take pantoprazole and levosulperide combination on empty stomach twice daily.
5. Quit smoking and alcohol if he has these habits.
6. Go for walking after meals.
7. Keep 2-3 pillows under head in bed.
Don't worry, he will be alright in 1 month with all these.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wishing good health to your relative. Thanks.
