Hello thanks for asking from HCM for your doubts

I can understand your concern. You have problems of persistent acid reflux and pressure on chest. Persistent acid reflux can occur due to a number of conditions and gastritis, GERD (Gastro Esophageal Reflux Disease) etc are common reasons. You also have to go to toilets 3-4 times a day and this can be due to irritable bowel syndrome also. All these symptoms should be properly investigated. Visit a doctor for evaluation of these symptoms.

Medicines like antacids like Omeprazole, Rabeprazole, Ranitidine etc can be used for relief of symptoms. These medicines should be taken in empty stomach before breakfast and should be used regularly for at least 4-6 weeks. This will help in healing the damaged mucosa. For problem of frequent bowel complaints drugs like Clinidium Bromide can help. Visit a doctor for prescription of these medicines. Try to avoid heavy meals, take plenty of water with meals, avoid spicy foods.

Thanks, Take care
