Patient's question:
At 39 weeks and 4 days, I'm experiencing heartburn, a burning sensation in my stomach, a feeling of fullness in my abdomen, and a constant urge to use the restroom. When I sit down, the baby keeps moving.Doctor's answer:
Gastric acid generally refers to symptoms caused by excessive digestive fluid in the stomach, which is due to the overstimulation of the gastric mucosa by excessive digestive fluid. It typically manifests as a burning sensation in the stomach, and in severe cases, it may lead to acid reflux. If you experience such symptoms, it is recommended to use medications that inhibit gastric acid production and pay attention to your diet by avoiding spicy and fried foods.
