Patient's question:
I am 50 years old with a 3-year history of stomach cold. Recently, I've been experiencing stomach acid and pain after dinner. What could be the reason? What should I do?Doctor's answer:
Acid reflux and stomach pain are primarily caused by stomach and intestinal damp-heat, and general medications often prove ineffective. It is recommended to use traditional Chinese medicine ingredients such as Hei Fan (Potassium Bituminosum), Hei Zao (Black Jujube), He Tao Ren (Walnut Kernel), Yi Zi (Gardenia Fruit), Fu Ling (Poria), Sha Ren (Cardamom), Hou Pu (Magnolia Bark), San Ling (Sparganium), Chuan Shan Jia (Rhinoceros Horn), Chen Qu (Bitter Melon), Mai Ya (Malt), Shang Jia (Upper Turtle Shell), Xia Jia (Lower Turtle Shell), Hong Hua (Safflower), Hai Nan Chen (Acorus Calamus), Tie Dan Fen (Iron Gall Powder), Feng Jiao (Propolis), and Feng La (Beeswax) for treatment, which can quickly cure the condition and prevent recurrence.In addition to conventional treatment for acid reflux, patients should also pay attention to dietary habits, such as maintaining a light diet and engaging in regular outdoor activities. Meanwhile, patients should choose a reputable hospital for diagnosis to ensure effective treatment.
