What I can do to stop this?
Brief Answer:
Advised Omeprazole.
Detailed Answer:
Hello XXXXXXX
Your symptoms suggest Gastro esophageal reflux (Acid reflux). Stomach secretions (acid) flow back ward to food pipe and causes burning sensation in throat.
I suggest you proton pump inhibitors like Omeprazole. You should take this medication 30 minutes before breakfast on empty stomach for 4 weeks.
Probiotics(Vibact ds once a day after food) including yogurt will help you for digestion.
Additionally I would like to give you some suggestions.
Drink plenty of water. Do not skip breakfast and meals.
Avoid smoking if you smoke and alcohol if you consume.
Restrict hot beverages like tea, coffee and cold beverages like pepsi.
Avoid spicy, junk, fast and outside food.
Avoid heavy meal and small meals more times.
Eat healthy food like vegetables and fruits.
Drink butter milk twice a day.
Hope I have answered your query.
If you have any queries I will be happy to help you.
Thank you.
