A member asked:
I know what heartburn and acid reflux is. but why did i get it all of a sudden when i've never had before?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hiatal hernia?: With age, a hiatal hernia can develop which can predispose someone to acid reflux. Try an OTC acid suppressant and if you don't get quick relief, see your doctor to make sure it is not something more serious.
