General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

Your symptoms seem to be related to acid reflux. I would recommend using antacids to reduce the level of acid in the stomach.

I also recommend using proton inhibitors such as Omeprazole daily. I also recommend avoiding food which can trigger the symptoms.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
