Possible heartburn: Using an over the counter antacid may be helpful in relieving heartburn. Avoid alcohol until re evaluated. a barium swallow can provide additional information, as indicated. Eat less acidic foods and avoid spicy foods, foods with angles and sharp edges such as chips. Yogurt daily is also recommended. Please follow up with your PCP.
