I'm experiencing chest pain, probably due to gas acidity, and it feels uncomfortable. I even have cramping pain in my abdomen that doesn't seem to go away, lasting until the next day. Plus, after every meal, I notice some gas forming. Should I be concerned, or is there something specific I should do to manage this better?

You may be experiencing symptoms of gastritis or acid reflux. I recommend taking an antacid medication to help with the acidity and gas. Additionally, you can try taking a proton pump inhibitor to reduce stomach acid production. It is also important to avoid spicy and acidic foods, as well as eating smaller meals more frequently. If the symptoms persist, please consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

I'm having some gas issues lately and after I work out, I've been getting this pinpoint pain on the left side of my chest. It first happened a couple of weeks ago and again yesterday. The pain wasn't super strong, but it was there, and I also had some trouble breathing and felt a bit nauseous. What could be going on?

it might be gastritis, take tablet pantoprazole once daily for 5 days

I'm having trouble with my breathing at times, especially when I'm lying down, and I also experience a lot of acid reflux and burping. Could this be connected to heart issues or is it more likely something to do with my digestion? Who should I get in touch with for this?

it's gastritis , take pantop 40mg for 5 days
