Suggest Treatment For Mild Discomfort In The Chest

I have discomfort in chest but it s been going on over a week. It is not severe, just troublesome as I don t know what is causing it. I am also burping more than usual. At times, it is more like my chest and back are sore. It is worse at times than others but I don t think it is associated with eating or at least I don t notice it like right after I eat.

Hello,

I would like to tell you that predominantly your state of gastric reflux disorder as you gave history of chest discomfort and increased burping. But to exclude any possibilities of underlying heart disease evaluation is required.

Kindly get an ECG and Echocardiography done. And take over the counter antacid and make changes in your eating as well which includes:
- Stop eating junk food
- No carbonated drinks
- Less caffeine containing products.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Bhanu Partap
