Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
By your history and description, possibility of GERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease) is more.
GERD is due to laxity of gastroesophageal sphincter. Because of this the acid of the stomach tends to come up in the esophagus and cause symptoms of chest pain, shoulder pain etc.
So follow these steps for better symptomatic relief in GERD.
1. Avoid hot and spicy food.
2. Avoid stress and tension, be relax and calm.
3. Avoid large meals, instead take frequent small meals.
4. Take pantoprazole instead of ranitidine.
5. Quit smoking and alcohol if you are having these habits.
6. Go for walking after meals.
7. Keep 2 - 3 pillows under head in the bed to prevent reflux.
Don't worry, you will be alright with all these.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
