Acidity, indigestion
I have been having indigestion problems and acidity for a couple of months now. it seems that I have to go to the washroom after every meal. although the stool is normal I don't think it is normal to go after every meal. But I generally go twice a day at least. yesterday I had acidity and therefore had vomiting. Had Pantocid and Antagesic
which I got from the pharmacy that has helped me.
Wanted to understand the symptoms in detail so as to have a more permanent cure for the same. I am a pure vegetarian and non-alcoholic and do not eat out very frequently.

[ ] Hi as your symptoms are suggestive of gastritis. Follow some life style changes : stop tea coffee. Avoid spicy food. Don't eat cabbage / capsicum/ don't drink / eat citrus fruits. If symptoms persists then It's better to get a upper Gastroscopy done to rule out ulcers/ erosions/ presence of H.pylori infection. By then you can take tab. PANTODAC DSR (1-0-1) HALF AN HOUR BEFORE MEAL FOR 7 DAYS. Sup. GAVISCON 10 ml THREE TIMES A DAY AFTER MEAL FOR 10 DAYS. Report the progress. Feel free to ask any further quary related to your problem.
