maybe acid reflux which can
maybe acid reflux which can also be caused by stomach not producing acid quick enough for breaking down food which means whatever you eat takes longer to digest causing big problems. maybe worth trying a corkful of apple cider vinegar and a teaspoon of honey in a little warm water. acv helps to digest the food while the honey soothes the easophogus. works for me.
Please note that I am not a
Please note that I am not a physician and I cannot diagnose any medical condition. If you do indeed have sores in your stomach, this would be classified as peptic ulcers. However, it is impossible to know if this is the case without the proper physical examination and laboratory tests.
If the pain is so bad that you can hardly eat, something is wrong. Pain is not normal and should be addressed. It would be most prudent to get this checked out by your regular healthcare professional. You would want to have him or her confirm the diagnosis of peptic ulcers and rule out other problems like reflux disease, cancer, or other gastrointestinal problems.
I also want to mention that if you do have ulcers, and they begin to bleed profusely, this can be a life threatening scenario. In the case of bright red blood leaking from the rectum, plus dizziness, profuse sweating, or, dark tarry stools that smell foul, this indicates that you have blood in the digestive tract and would require medical intervention.
If this is not the case, there are some natural things you can try.
Some people take baking soda for excess stomach acid, but this can actually cause an increased, rebound acidity. You can take calcium carbonate tablets, but to effectively treat acid indigestion, you will have to take them very frequently.
Finally, a herbal combination product that contains licorice, peppermint leaf, German chamomile, caraway, lemon balm, clown’s mustard plant, celandine, angelica, and milk thistle has been demonstrated to significantly reduce the severity of acid reflux, epigastric pain, cramping, nausea, and vomiting as compared to placebo when taken three times daily for four weeks.
If the situation doesn’t resolve within two weeks, medical intervention, treatment, or medications may be necessary. There is a specific drug regimen that can be taken to cure peptic ulcers which are caused by the bacteria Helicobacter pylori.
