Brief Answer:
Most probably Gastritis
Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thank you for getting back with the answers. Probable diagnosis from your symptoms could Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and Gastritis. I would suggest you to once visit hospital & get an appointment for a Gastroenterologist. He is specialized in dealing with such conditions. Also that there are some meds which are prescription only and he can give you the prescription. If i were your treating doctor then i would have advised following things:
> Medical Care:
- Omeprazole one daily for 14 days
- sucralfate suspension thrice a day for 10 days
- a baseline ECG to confirm status of heart
> General Care:
Medical care can do NOTHING if you donot take general care about your health. Following steps would help you to recover slowly:
- take small frequent meals.
- take 30-45mins walk/exercise daily in the evening. It will make you fresh, healthy and is good for digestion.
- Don't lie down immediately after taking meal
- raise head end of your bed slightly(by an inch)
- Eat a diet rich in fiber, especially from fruits and vegetables
> AVOID:
fatty & oily food.
spices
heavy meals at night
carbonated & caffeine drinks
chocolates
It is a very slow process to heal. If you will leave treatment in middle OR take food that you should avoid then will prolong the illness.
Hope I have answered your query. If you have any further questions I will be happy to help if not then don't forget to close the discussion and rate it.
Wishing you good health !!
