Hello!
Thanks for using healthcaremagic.com
I read carefully your question and understand your concern.
I think you have
gastroesophageal reflux disease.
I see similar cases among my patient who visit my clinic. In the first meeting, I advise my patients to go on lifestyle modifications for three months. I retest them again after three months.
Depending on the severity of gastroesophageal reflux disease, treatment may include one or more of the following lifestyle changes, diet, medications, or surgery.
Lifestyle changes
If you smoke, you should stop
smoking.
Avoid foods and drinks that worsen symptoms.
Lose weight if necessary.
Eat small, frequent meals.
Wear loose clothing.
Avoid lying down for 3 hours after a meal.
Raise the head of the bed 6 to 8 inches, securing the wooden blocks under the bed posts. Only with extra pillows will not help.
Your healthcare provider may recommend antacids or over-the-counter medications that stop the production of acid or help the muscles that empty your stomach(Antacids, such as
Maalox, Mylanta, Rolaids, and Riopan, are often the first drugs recommended to relieve acidity and other mild symptoms of gastroesophageal reflux disease).
Foaming agents, such as
Gaviscon, work by covering the contents of the stomach with foam to prevent reflux.
Kind regards,
Dr. Oscar Martinez
