default
Posted on Mon, 30 Mar 2015
Question: I am feeling a little discomfort for breathing from almost a week. I had a pastry with cream on it, so for a while I thought breathing problem might be because of that. But still I am having that problem and feel like something is stuck in between my lungs. after almost 6 months I started back doing exercises. Not heavy and regularly. little one like jogging and exercise to reduce stomach fat on alternate days. So Is it because of acidity or something serious to be checked? Now a days I am continuously sitting for at least 1 hr without a break.

Brief Answer:
GERD a possible cause.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for posting your query.
I am Dr.R.K and I am pleased to assist you.

The chest discomfort and the feeling of something stuck inside could be due to gastroesophageal reflux disease.
You can get some relief with ENO. You also need to take medications like Nexium once a day for 4 weeks.
Avoid coffee, citrus, chocolates, tomatoes, spicy/masala/fatty food. Avoid bed time snacks and got to bed at least 2-3 hours after food.

I hope that answers your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr.R.K.

Thanks for the response. Just to let you know, 10 days ago, I went to a neuro physician and started using Sibellum 5 mg once a day (as we have a doubt if I am suffering from mild migraine). So please let me know if I can take Nexium while having Sibellum (every night) and if yes, during what time it should be taken. Also Is that fine taking Nexium without being sure if it is GERD?

Brief Answer:
Nexium once in the morning

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
You have to take Nexium once in the morning before breakfast.
Relief of symptoms by taking Nexium itself is diagnostic of GERD.
Nexium is a safe medication and there is no need to worry.

You can continue taking Sibelium.
