Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
By your history and description, possibility of GERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease) is more.
GERD is due to laxity of gastroesophageal sphincter. Because of this the acid of the stomach tends to come up in the esophagus and cause symptoms of central chest pain, bloating, gaseous distention of stomach, belching, burping etc.
So follow these steps for better symptomatic relief in GERD.
1. Avoid stress and tension, be relax and calm.
2. Avoid hot and spicy food. Avoid junk food.
3. Avoid large meals, instead take frequent small meals.
4. Take combination of pantoprazole and levosulperide twice daily on empty stomach.
5. Avoid smoking and Alcohol if you have these habits.
6. Keep 2-3 pillows under heading bed to prevent reflux.
7. Loose weight if you are obese.
Don't worry, you will be alright with all these.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
