How to Manage GERD and Acid Reflux?

Acid reflux problem gerd

Dr. Samrat Jankar

Surgical Gastroenterologist

Answered on 23rd May '24

Acid reflux, also known as GERD, is a common condition where the acid from the stomach flows up the esophagus. Symptoms are heartburn, chest, and swallowing. I would refer people with these symptoms to see a gastroenterologist for the right diagnosis and treatment.

Hi. It’s regarding my younger sister she’s 4. After Eid, she stopped eating and lost weight a bit. But she’s been eating well again for the last 2 weeks so her appetite is back to normal. She had an ear infection and flu right before she lost her appetite but her appetite loss happened after finishing the antibiotics. However, over the past months she always says ‘my leg hurts’ and she says it’s her ankle. It doesn’t make her cry or anything and it doesn’t stop her playing like a wild animal ???? but today she has blood in her poo and on tissue when wiping it was bright red blood it’s happened before when she was constipated she didn’t drink much water yesterday and my other sister also got the norovirus so it could be that- her poo was watery. She also catches colds frequently

 See­ing blood when she goes poo could me­an she's constipated. That can make poo hard to pass. It may also be­ from norovirus, which causes diarrhea and tummy aches. He­r sore leg nee­ds checking too. That pain may relate to he­r other problems or signal something e­lse. Make sure she­ drinks lots of water and eats healthy foods to he­lp her tummy feel be­tter. If the leg pain ge­ts worse or won't go away, take her to the doctor.

i’ve had light constipation this past week, i’ve been passing a little bit of stool at least once each day and i want to get an idea of how i can fix it?

Female | 17

You have mild constipation. This is when stool moves slowly in your inte­stines, making pooping difficult. Common reasons are not drinking e­nough water, not consuming enough fiber, or not be­ing active. To fix this, drink more water. Eat fruits and ve­getables. Move your body by walking or e­xercising regularly. Constipation makes bowe­l movements difficult. Mild cases can be­ alleviated with simple life­style changes.

Eat hard dose medicines without eating food

Female | 45

Strong medicines taken without eating can cause stomach upset. You may experience the following symptoms: feel nauseous, have stomach pain, or even throw up. The reason is that the medicines can be harmful to an empty stomach. One way to solve this problem is to always eat something before taking your medicine. A small snack is enough to get you through this.

I am 18 year old male and i have stomach ache from 2 days and i have taken no medications the pain is more in lower right side of abdomen and my abdomen hurts when breathing and walking basically when moving

Male | 18

The location of the pain in the lower right of your stomach, especially when walking, may be a sign of appendicitis. The swelling of the appendix is called appendicitis. The primary clues may also be loss of appetite, nausea, and fever. A doctor must be sought immediately for a full checkup and proper therapy as appendicitis might be dangerous and can involve surgery as a remedy.

My stomach is having gas bubble

Male | 48

Okay you can try a few remedies to find relief. Drink warm liquids like herbal teas or warm water with lemon to relax the stomach muscles. Avoid carbonated drinks and chewing gum as they can contribute to gas production.
