General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello,

Your symptoms seem to be related to acid reflux. I recommend you to use antacids such as Milk of magnesia daily. I also recommend to use PPI medication such as Omeprazole in the morning before breakfast.

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

Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
