I woke up one day and my throat burned like crazy and i learned that it was acid reflux caused from eating too late and acid from your stomach seeping into your throat. I wanted to know what to do to help this because naturally ive just been drinking juice or water and eating lots of fruits to soothe it. Also, ive been experiencing a lot of coughing and wanted to know is this normal and what to do to prevent and help acid reflux.

Hi. I have had a very bad year..to say the least . First, I caught a staph infection. Then, all of sudden again, after a month later, I caught a stomach infection, h.pylori. I was treated for this and the doctor said the h.pylori was gone. But even after the h.pylori was gone I still had symptoms, just not as bad. I still have the gastritis that it caused and now recently the burning pain from the stomach has moved up through my throat and its making me sick. I went back to the doctor and he told me the nausea is from acid reflux. It seems if my stomach is not burning then its in my esphugs burning and making me nauseas. I cant win. I rather have the burning in my stomach then the nausea. All I know after i got out of that hospital my stomach hasnt been right. Can anyone help? I was wondering if anyone knew of a good probiotic i can use. I heard they r good for all different digestive disorders. I also heard aloe cures acid reflux and gastratis. Is this true? Please help. thanks .

You may have heard of acid reflux or heartburn. You may also have experienced the symptoms of the condition from time to time. However, have you ever sat back and looked into what might be causing the problem? Acid reflux causes could be the answer to maintaining your condition and the more you know, the easier it will be to handle.

It is all very good and well taking medicated treatments for acid reflux but at the end of the day, these are generally only meant to be used in the short term and long term usage could cause to further problems. It is not unheard of for a patient to become dependent on this medication in order to combat the condition but it is a much better idea to look at the acid reflux causes to try and prevent the symptoms rather than stop them once they have started.

is it true if a body cleanse is done, the odor will go away?

Acid reflux is mainly caused due to regurgitation or refluxing of partly digested food back to esophagus. This reflux causes inflammation in food tube leading to burning sensations and pain in stomach and digestive tract. Once food has reached stomach, the lid of sphincter muscle should close properly and prevent food from refluxing back. But when due to some reason sphincter muscle fails to do so it results in acid reflux.

Though the root causes are often unclear, perhaps the most prevalent acid reflux cause is a poor diet. Acid reflux occurs during digestion, when the stomach churns up acid or refluxes it into the esophagus, causing a burning sensation in the chest or throat. So if you eat too many highly acidic foods like tomato sauces and/or fatty, fried foods, the stomach has to process an overabundance of acid. Too much acid can push back through a valve between the stomach and the esophagus called the lower esophageal sphincter (LES). Acid reflux culprits include but are not limited to tomato based sauces, fried and fatty foods, chocolate, alcohol, citrus fruits, peppers, and caffeinated beverages

If acid reflux is severe, can it cause pain in the area of the back between the shoulder blades? Pain that radiates to the shoulders, chest and even causes acid to come up in the throat??

I’ve been having difficulty swallowing and went to see an ENT. Apparently, I have acid reflux. I’m just wondering how, exactly, this causes difficulty swallowing? I should have asked my doctor but I guess I was so preoccupied I forgot to ask.

Millions of people are bothered by acid reflux disease. Some common symptoms of acid reflux include heartburn, nausea, vomiting, regurgitation and ulcers of the esophagus. Acid reflux happens when the digestive acids produced in the stomach pushes (refluxes) into the esophagus from the stomach. There are many acid reflux causes, but unfortunately a cure has not been found.

One common acid reflux cause is when the muscle tissue located at the base of the esophagus, the lower esophageal sphincter (LES), does not function properly. This band of muscle, when working correctly, contracts and blocks acid from backing up into the esophagus. When the LES becomes weak or fails to operate, the barrier disappears causing acid reflux.
