ACIDITY SPICY 🔥 GAS
I'm a 33 year-old Male. I have been experiencing acidity, gas, and a burning sensation after eating for the past 1.5 years. I have completely stopped drinking tea, but the problem still persists. The burning sensation usually starts after lunch (between 11:00 AM and 1:00 PM), especially if I eat salad or finish my meal quickly. My symptoms are usually worse between 4:00 PM and 7:00 PM. I usually have one bowel movement every morning, and it happens easily without straining. However, the stool consistency is not always normal and varies from day to day. Sometimes I also experience a burning sensation even without eating spicy food. Please advise what could be causing these symptoms and what tests or treatment I may need.
Acidity is a common problem mostly caused by lifestyle eating habits, outside food etc. Prolonged symptoms can be because of H Pylori infection: for this you will need to undergo Endoscopy and test for this : if found positive, then a course of medicines for eradicating H Pylori will have to be taken
Next Steps
Medical Gastroenterologist should help with Endoscopy and treatment
