Can Chewing Skoal Cause Bloating And Head Pressure?

I am 49 with CHF. My question is I have been bloated most of the last 2 months and have terrible head pressure. Can hardly put my shoes on or walk to the car. Heart Dr says all fine but this is not fun. I chew skoal everyday and thought maybe this was it. I just want relief.

Hi
it can be because of acid peptic disorder or severe gastritis.
you should tke proton pump inhibitors like pantoprazole or esomeprazole for 14 days
tablet antacids can also be taken along with it , once problem of bloating and belching goes away, head pressure wil also reduces .
As your doctor says that you are clear from cardiac side , most likely reason is acid peptic disorder.
I find this answer helpful
