Suggest Treatment For Sore Throat And Anxiety
my husband is 48 yrs old is 6ft 200 lbs. Has a history of acid reflux but is on omperzal. Says he has a feeling of a sore throat, like when it first starts. He says he has felt this way for several weeks. The sore throat never goes past this first step but he just doesn t feel good either. he pushes himself physically, doesn t eat right and is prone to anxiety attacks. any ideas where to start?

thank-you for your query.
according to me too much of reflux causes soreness in throat too.Instead of omeprazole you can start taking pantoprazol,twice a day.So far as your husband's eating habit is concerned, all I want to say is that you have to improve the eating life style of your better half. he should not indulge into too much of oily and spicy foods. Exercising is good but body needs to be fed after exercise to make up its glucose demands. Try to start up on oats, sprouts, nut, salads and milk products in the breakfast and lunch should constitute a balanced food(chapatis, rice, dal,vegetables). ask your husband to take light dinner followed by a walk for at least half an hour
Since your husband takes lots of stress too then for your knowledge I must say that stress do increases the acid secretion in stomach which in turn causes reflux. In this case yoga for half an hour is advisable. And if further the symptoms won't go off then kindly consult an gastroentologist.
