Can you tell me about non-stop heartburn and acid indigestion?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Acid reflux: It is important to get chronic acid reflux under control. You can try initially to use anti-reflux precautions (on this site in the Tips area under my name labeled "avoiding heartburn") and a trial of over-the-counter acid reducing medicine. If two weeks of this does not solve the problem, you should see your doctor or a gastroenterologist. Good luck.
