Treatment Heartburn
regular heartburn, causes?
My mother has been suffering from fairly regular heartburn/indigestion. She says it’s a sensationas if something is stuck in her throat/burning sensation…
She has always suffered with anxiety and I’m wondering if it’s related?
Also, does anyone know the most effective methods of treatment/what to cut out of the diet? Thanks a lot for your help.,
It sounds like she could have acid reflux. Heartburn is one many symptoms of acid reflux and can cause a great deal of pain and inconvenience.
It could be a number of factors causing it but the most common heartburn trigger is food. What happens is certain foods cause your stomach to produce more acids and stomach contents as well as acids get pushed out of your lower esophageal sphincter (the valve between your stomach and esophagus) and back into your esophagus. These acids eat away at your esophagus causing irritation, heartburn, a sour taste in your mouth, etc. There are a number of symptoms.
I’ve attached a link that will give you symptoms of acid reflux, treatments, and how to prevent it. Specifically, read the causes of heartburn to see if you are doing or eating something that is triggering it.
