Hello,

Heartburn is due to acid reflux from GERD. While muscle cramps are due to overwork or due to inability of the body to the inability of the body to utilise energy as found in metabolic diseases like Diabetes mellitus.

Due to loss of salts in sweet or heavy work. For heartburn, as you have taken esomeprazole, I prescribe you: Rx tab Lansoprazole OD for 15 days.

Syrup Digene twice daily for 15 days. However, I feel the heartburn has another element that is stress. If you feel any kind of anxiety relax and do tell me whether u feel it or not so that further treatment protocol can be initiated.

For muscle cramps I suggest you try

1) Fluids, juice with some amount of salt
2) Avoid heavy work.
3) Take carbohydrate-rich diet if you work hard.
4) Talmin D sos.

I am sure you will feel healthy in a few days.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr SOHEEL HUSSAIN ZARGAR, Dentist
