Heartburn / indigestion symptoms?
Please tell me what this feels like and the longest it has lasted with you. I have had sore chest pain on and off for about 4 hours now just wondering if anyone else gets this when the have heartburn or indigestion. I have no burning sensation so im just not sure . thanks
Special diets (food restrictions) do not work for heartburn at all. Heartburn is a symptom of acid reflux disease. Refluxing acidic material burns open sores which many people have on the surface of their esophagus.
So, you need to have a treatment for acid reflux disease. It may be due to gastritis. If you have severe gastritis, you may have reflux whatever you eat. a doctor should decide it after a diagnosis.
Some people, on the other hand, claim that medical treatment does not cure acid reflux disease and they prefer some alternative remedies. They do not believe in antacids or other medications. Such a claim exists at banishacidreflux.com I really cannot comment on these claims.
But, I think it is a good idea to visit a doctor first. If you have insurance, have an endoscopic diagnosis to learn the situation in your stomach. It would reveal a lot.
