Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I HAVE ACUTE ACID REFLEX, THREW UP SEVERAL TIMES, ALOT OF ACID. I HAVE EVERY SO OFTEN A FEELING IN MY CHEST NEAR MY SOLAR PLES LIKE IT FEELS LIKE A BALL OF AIR AND IS VERY PAINFUL. AFTER ABOUT 15 SECONDS IT EASYS, THEN IT MAY HIT AGAIN IN ABOUT 45 MIN.
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of severe acid reflux which could be due to dysfunction of upper sphincter of esophagus leading to passage of more acid in stomach.
Need not to worry. You should avoid oily and spicy food. You need to reduce quantity of food taken per meal. Take antacid like Milk of magnesia before meals and avoid spicy, heavy and acidic foods. Drink plenty of water and take more of Probiotics in diet. You should take diet rich in multivitamins. This all will prevent reflux. I would advise that you to visit gastroenterologist once and get an upper gastrointestinal tract endoscopy done to look for severity of gastritis.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes, Dr. Harry Maheshwari
