I am suffering from acidity since two months, my baby is 4 months old. I feel like food is sticking to my throat and lot of mucus in my throat, I always want to clear throat. Also has burning sensation in my stomach, since two months I am burping whole day. Done my endoscopy one month back which is normal, doc prescribed sompraz for 4 weeks and antibiotics. But nothing improved. Some time I also feel shar pain in chest (food pipe not sure) when I inhale. After taking sompraz for 3 weeks I felt pain in all my joints and started feeling anxiety. Do I need to do the endoscopy again? I am also breastfeeding. Since one month I am not eating anything spicy, oily. Only home cooked food. I drink good amount of water. I do meditation .also doctor informed me I am burping because of the muscle spasms which is normal. Why my sensation in the throat not going away. I am very scared, please help me.

Don't worry it is a cattarrhal condition of gastrointestinal tract, that's why lot of mucous coming out. Don't need any endoscope or any other invasive investigations. Better to avoid. Follow these instructions. 1.drink glass of lukewarm water before break fast, lunch, dinner. 2.avoid stress. 3.avoid external applications on skin. 4. Take a pinch of cooking soda with water. It is a bicarbonate and it neutralizes the excess acid in our stomach. Thank you. For more details contact me.

This medicine (proton pump inhibitor (ppi).) will not cure problem. It only works by reducing the amount of acid in the stomach. The day you do not take medicine normal acid production will be there n you will have symptoms. Do this 1. Don't take tea empty stomach. Eat something like a banana (if you are not diabetic) or any seasonal fruit or soaked almonds and a glass of water first thing in the morning (within 10 mins of waking up). No only biscuits or rusk will not do. 2. Don't overeat 3. Take your breakfast every day. Don't skip it. U can eat whatever your mother or grandparent eat in bfast. I mean to say whatever is your traditional food. If punjabi eat paratha, if belongs to south then take idli/ dosa etc. 4. Have light meals every 2 hours (in addition to your breakfast, lunch n dinner) e.g. Nariyal paani, chaach, a handful of dry fruits, a handful of peanuts, any fresh n seasonal fruit (eat whole fruit not juice), a cup of curd/milk etc 5. Finish your dinner at least 2 hours before going to sleep. Take simple food like rice n dal in dinner. 6. Maintain active life style7. Avoid fast foods, spicy n fried foods, carbonated beverages 8. Take a lot of green vegetables n fruit. It contains a lot of fiber which will help reduce tendency for constipation 9. Drink lot of water.10. Everyday preferably sleep on same time 11. Take half cup of cold milk when you feel acidity, it will help. Curd is good for u. 12. If its very severe then elevate your bed raising the head of your bed six to eight inches can help gravity keep gastric acid down in your stomach. This is for long term results but for now to bring your digestive system back on track you need to take medicines. For that I need more details, you can consult me.
