The term for that sir is GASTRO-ESOPHAGEAL REFLUX DISEASE (GERD).
It occurs when gastric acid reaches your esophagus creating a burning sensation which they call HEARTBURN, mura kag makafeel ug heart attack sa kasakit.
sakit jud kay ni xa but you can treat it naman especially when you know the cause.
first have yourself examined by a specialist coz you might have H. Pylori (Helicobacter Pylori)
- if you have this bacteria in your tummy, Ginoo ko, bisan pag usa ka truck nga H2 BLOCKERS or PPI imo tumaron mubalik ra japon na. In that case, you need the following medications for ONLY 1 WEEK to erradicate the sade bacteria.
Med. 1: Co-Amoxiclav 1gm tab. - 1 tablet 2 x a day (14 tablets all)
Med. 2: Clarithromycin 500mg tab. - 1 tablet 2 x a day (14 tablets all)
Med. 3: Omeprazole - either 20mg 2 x a day or 40mg OD (14-20mg tabs or 7-40mg tabs)
- avoid eating too much. the fuller your stomach is, the faster is the gastric acid production and secretion.
- don't smoke.
- avoid alcoholic drinks.
- avoid acidic foods and drinks (coffee is considered one of the most acidic drinks ok? ph is at... hmmm... same as vinegar or lower pa man tingale)
hope this helps. sorry gabinisaya jud ko kay im so sleepy na
