What Causes Chest Pain And Excessive Burping?
Hi. I have chest pain for a couple of days. Could it be acid reflex? I would hate to spend hundreds of dollars to be told I have gas. Lol. The pain started Thursday, took tums, drank water with baking soda (old remedy), and stayed away from fried foods. Should I try other over the counter products? I have been burping, but still having pain
