Thanks for contacting HCM. Dear Patient you could be having hiatus hernia. Please avoid heavy, starchy and oily meals. Take frequent small meals. Do not lie down immediately after meals. Take following medicines - 1. Rabeperazole with domperidone Sr preparation once daily morning on empty stomach.
2. Famotidine 40mg daily at bed time.
3. Antacid Syrup 20 ml three times after meals.
If you weight is on higher side especially fat at abdomen then loose weight.Eat lots of vegetables and fruits. Go for regular exercise atleast 40mins a day./
Lots of people benefit from above regimen. if not then surgery can help. regards
