Chest Pain After Eating

Possible Causes:

  1. Acid Reflux (GERD): Stomach acid flowing up into the esophagus can cause chest pain, especially after eating spicy foods.
  2. Gastroesophageal Junction Disorder: Abnormal relaxation of the lower esophageal sphincter can lead to acid reflux and chest pain.
  3. Esophageal Spasm: Muscle contractions in the esophagus can cause chest pain, especially after eating.

Relief Measures:

  1. Sleeping Position: Lying down can help alleviate symptoms, as you've noticed.
  2. Avoid Trigger Foods: Reduce or avoid spicy, fatty, or acidic foods that can trigger acid reflux.
  3. Antacids or Acid Reducers: Over-the-counter medications like Tums, Rolaids, or Zantac can help neutralize stomach acid.
