How can i get rid of frequent heart burn?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Stop all good stuff: Avoid: chocolate, mint, tomato, fatty foods, large meals, caffeine. You can start by taking otc medication (ranitidine). If your weight is unhealthy, try to lose weight. See your pcp for further advise and help with other medications if not controlled with otc meds.
