Throat acid reflux problem (feels like battery acid in throat)...any home remedies instead of doctor visit? |
I have had this battery acid feeling in my throat now off and on for a month. I started taking Prilosec OTC almost two weeks ago and last night I had the worst spell of acid in my throat. I tried taking Maalox and drinking some milk and nothing helped. This is the first time that I have had all day acid and not been able to get rid of it. Does anyone know of an Over the counter medicine that is especially good for acid reflux/acid in throat? I have already tried taking typical antacids like rolaids and Gas-X and of course the prilosec OTC. Or am I describing acid reflux disease and thus should go to the doctor? help! Since your problem is so constant and lengthy, I recommend you see a doctor. However, for acid indigestion and stomach distress I take a teaspoon of baking soda (like Arm & Hammer) and a half glass of water. It's an old remedy and it works. Its importnat to go to the doctor as soon as possible because any problems with your throat could close your airway up. I would advise you to see a doctor to be on the safe side and to help the condition you have. Sounds like you have tried everything so now it's time to see your doctor!! The longer you wait the worse it will get!! It won't go away by itself !! Prilosec can take a while to help. Try Zantac OTC (you can double up to get a prescription dose of 150mg). Milk is NOT helpful for heartburn - the protein activates acid excretion. Also avoid sugary and fried foods. See your doctor if you are not better in a couple of days and also if you get a fever I prefer Zantac myself. Take double the dosage for awhile to get your acid under control. |
