Patient's question:
After breakfast, I experience heartburn. It has been over a year. Two ultrasound examinations were normal. Taking Omeprazole stops the heartburn, but the symptoms return immediately after stopping the medication. What could be causing excessive stomach acid in the long term?Doctor's answer:
Excess stomach acid may be caused by gastritis; it is recommended to pay attention to regular diet, avoid alcohol, and refrain from extremely cold, sour, and spicy foods. Do not overeat. You can take medications like Amoxicillin and Omeprazole together to cure it. In addition to symptomatic treatment, patients with stomach acid should maintain deep sleep throughout their lives. Sufficient deep sleep is essential to help patients recover quickly from the condition.
