Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.
I have gone carefully through your query and understand your concerns. You seem to be suffering from hyperacidity, gastritis or gastroesophageal reflux. However, a thorough clinical examination is required to make an actual diagnois. My suggestions in such a case would be:
* Avoid long gaps between meals. Take small but frequent meals.
* Avoid chilli and spicy foods. They trigger excess gastric acid secretion and may also mess up with digestion.
* You need to take plenty of green leafy vegetables in your diet. It will provide adequate roughage and will lessen your problems.
* You need to avoid stress. Stress is a leading cause of hyperacidity.
* Take omeprazole 20 mg once a day before breakfast.
* Regular morning walk and exercise is essential to maintain proper bowel movements.
* Take fibre supplements like psyllium husk.
* Visit a doctor and get yourself evaluated thoroughly.
Hope that helps.
Regards
