What Could Acid Burns Post A Meal Suggest?

Hello there, I sometimes have acid burn after a heavy meal and too much drinks, it is keeping me awake at night and sometimes even turn into some reflux when i finally go to sleep and choke on my own vomit. but this is rare about 4 times a year and the acid burn about 1 night a month maximum. But my concern is that since 4 days i have acid burns non-stop, i off course avoid heavy food and alcohol but even swalowing a soup is unconfortable and burn a bit ....what is it?

Hello,

This is due to Gastritis or Duodenitis with or without ulcer from chronic consumption of heavy meals and drinks.

We recommend an upper GI endoscopy to evaluate the issue precisely and manage accordingly.

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

Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel
