A member asked:
In the middle diaphragm area i am having discomfort and like a sharpness feeling & pressure. why? cause? could it be related to acid reflux? im 19.

Likely reflux: Reflux is a natural event where stomach contents bubble up into the lower esophagus. It is when the acid backwash produces symptoms that people feel the pain & get the disease label.Nicotine, caffeine & laying down after eating aggravate the process.Avoiding those helps it. Medications can help for a while but changing lifestyle choices helps more.
