You ask, I answer	it might be acid reflux. go to the doctor and ask about nexium. My husband had it and didn't know it. he popped Rolaids like they were candy. i saw an ad a few years ago for nexium, and told him to ask the doctor. he has been on nexium for several years now, and no more heartburn. nexium also helps repair your esophagus, which can be affected when you have severe acid reflux. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Daisyhill	You must eliminate acidic foods....bread can make it worse to. Keep a diary of what you eat and when and then put in the times when your heartburn is at it's worst. Youll soon see a pattern emerge. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

raindreamer	Aside from adjusting your diet and improving your general health, I find nothing works better than Pepcid Complete chewable tablets. It's a little bit pricey, but it's worth every penny. It's an over the counter medication, and not only does it work instantly to stop heartburn, but it prevents it almost all day - for over 12 hrs at least. I've recommended it to several friends and family members and they all use it exclusively now for heartburn. Of course if this is a problem you've had for a long time and it keeps recurring, as everyone else said, go to the doctor, and try nexium. I know a few people who use it, and it really does work wonders for acid reflux. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Ryan White	Peppermint tea. Great for all parts of digestion, it also tastes pretty good and is completely natural : ) Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

dondatu	Hurtburn also known as GERD or simply acid reflux. The best medicine I have tried is nexium so this is also the most expensive. But I have tried an effective, cheaper, and long term solution; that is, food diet of those who has GERD, regular exercise and most of all, water. When I tried the water theraphy, the symptomps I had associated with acid reflux is gone for almost a year now. What do you think? Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Johnny B	The best pills to take are "nexium" as they work for 24 hours at a time. ( Doctors will prescribe.) You may have some uncler trouble so this would be worth checking out as they are curable now with a simple treatment to kill the offending bacteria. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Nomad	drink Green Tea or fresh orange juice or ENO its good for heartburn Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

roberticvs	I have had the same problem. Suggestions: Pepto-Bismol. Avoid alcohol, carbonated drinks, spicy food, large portions of food, smoking, eating late in the evening. Give it a week or two, and see a doctor if symptoms persist. As someone else posted, it may be actual damage to your esophagus (stomach acid has burned your esophagus). Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

DAVID W	Heart burn is indigestion that leads to gastric reflux which is where the acid from your stomach travels up the oesophagus to your throat where you get a nasty acid taste. It is caused by eating a high fat diet and not enough roughage. Many people suffer this problem and it will eventually lead to stomach ulcers and more serious problems.

samicles	You can help prevent the heartburn by staying off citrus, fatty foods and spicy food. Try not to lay down for at least 2 hours after eating. Try not to bend down from the waist use your knees. That's what I do and it helps. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No
