A member asked:

When i burp i feel a full pain in my upper chest, i have no idea what it is but it's been happening for more than a day.

Acid reflux: Acid reflux often causes symptoms like the ones you have. Use an antacid like Pepcid (famotidine) or Prilosec once daily for one week and it should eliminate any symptoms due to Acid reflux.
