Hi,

The way you present history indicates gas generation in GIT and acidity issues. Due to that, you feel chest discomfort.

Let me know if you have any stomach issue, constipation. Your inputs will help to address your concerns. You may need drug therapy and diet modifications to address them.

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

Regards,
Dr. Soheel Hussain Zargar,
Dentist
