Hello,
Some advice that I can give to you is:
-Use antacid medication.
-Avoid specific foods that trigger your heartburn, but also watch out for peppermint, caffeine, sodas, and chocolate.
-Avoid smoking.
-If you are overweight this can aggravate the symptoms.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
