Question

I've been dealing with acid reflux lately, and I'm worried if it's related to my asthma or if it could damage my lungs in some way. Could GERD be a cause or make things worse?

I'm really worried because I had this sharp, stabbing pain on the left side of my chest yesterday. My family doctor prescribed me some gastric tablets like Ocid and Topnac P.
