Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Welcome to Health Care Magic, Thanks for writing to us,

I am Dr.Muhammad Ahmad, I have read your question, I understand your concern and will try to help you in the best possible way.

I am sorry to know about this i will here tell you emergency measures you can do at home and then the long term plan.

SHORT TERM PLAN:
For treatment for now:
Take 3 table spoons of syrup Gaviscon or any other antacid. Mix two table spoon baking soda in a cup of water and drink it. Eat some yogurt if you have, Take two tylenol tablets if you have. This should relieve symptoms quite a bit.. drink much water and eat some whole wheat product with leafy salad.

LONG TERM PREVENTION.

There are certain measures you can take which will help you control your symptoms.

1) Avoid bitter sour food.
2) Avoid fizzy, sour, caffeinated drinks, , don't take tea or coffee at all.
3) Avoid smoking and alcohol if you use them.
4) Increase fibre content in your food strictly avoid junk, use whole wheat products , you can even use fibre supplements (organic ones)
5) Eat red and white meat less for some days.
6) Reduce weight if you have more weight than you should.
7) Don't fall asleep or lie down immediately after dinner. have a 15-20 mins walk.


Then we come to meds,

1) You can use antacids over the counter for quick relieve like syrup Gaviscon.
2) I would prescribe my patient with Omeprazole or any other PPI they really help.
3) Then my patients responded really well to prokinetics like motillium.
4) I would also ask my patients to take zantac in night if they took omerpazole in morning to add the effect.


I Hope this answers your question, if your have more queries feel free to ask, otherwise close the discussion and rate it. Wish you the best of health.
