See physician: Patient should see physician for proper exam and therapy for problem. Many medications (antiacid) are available to aid in control of symptoms of refux. Some medications are over the counter like nexium (esomeprazole). Sometimes need to be examined intitially by fluoroscopy and/or endoscopy for proper diagnosis and therapy.
