What Causes Burning Sensation At The Bottom Of The Esophagus?

Pre-bronchitis. Lungs starting to burn at the bottom and base of esophagus. I have a suspected ulcer and am being treated for colitis. I asked my dr to call in a cough syrup because the bronchitis hasn t turned into the infection stage just yet but I will break ribs coughing before it comes to fruition. They gave me Promethazine DM Syrup. 5ML to 10ML qid. Is that going to interfere with the promethazine 12.5 pill that I take for nausea associated with coloitis? Thank you. My doctors office is closed and my cough is very persistant and trying its best to knock me dow.

Hello!

Thanks for using healthcaremagic.com

I read carefully your question and understand your concern.

I see similar cases amongst people who visit my clinic. This is a case of Extraesophageal Reflux. and it can be easily tested with a rhino-fibro-laryngoscopy. The reflux acts producing lesions in the larynx and pharynx, some of them are common to other pathologies, while other lesions are almost unequivocal of the disease.

In the first meeting, I advise my patients to go on lifestyle modifications for two months. I retest them again after three months.
I tell them to eat healthy and dont drink while they are eating, instead try to drink 30 minutes before every meal, or 1 hour after eating.

I use omeprazol, lanzoprazol, pantoprazol and rabeprazol on my patients to protect the lining of the stomach.

Kind regards,

Dr. Oscar Martinez
