What Causes Tightness In Upper Chest While Taking Prilosec For Acid Reflux?
Hello, It can be a sign of severe acid reflux. As of now continue prilosec and avoid spicy foods as it will precipitate the symptoms. If symptoms persists better to consult a gastroenterologist and plan for an endoscope to look for any mass or lump in the food pipe. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care Regards, Dr. Shinas Hussain
