Hello,
Thank you for reaching out to Dr. Galen. Please find the below response to your query.
If you are above 40 years of age, I recommend considering an upper GI endoscopy to further evaluate the issue. It is advisable to avoid foods that trigger acidity and maintain a minimum 5-hour gap between dinner and bedtime. Over-the-counter antacids can also provide relief.
Thanks
