About Acid reflux / heartburn visit

A reflux visit reviews symptoms (heartburn, regurgitation, cough, hoarseness, chest pain) and identifies contributing factors — weight, late meals, alcohol, smoking, hiatal hernia. Lifestyle measures are foundational: weight loss elevating the head of the bed, avoiding eating within three hours of lying down, and reducing known triggers. H2 blockers and proton pump inhibitors provide effective acid suppression for most patients. Alarm features — weight loss, dysphagia, anemia, GI bleeding, persistent symptoms despite therapy — warrant endoscopy.
