  5. I'm really struggling with this issue where my chest keeps getting filled with gas for the last 56 days. I've been drinking a lot of water which helps a bit, but then it just keeps happening. I'm burping all day long and last night I couldn't even sleep because it was so uncomfortable. Even when my chest isn't full, gas still forms in my stomach. Now today, my chest is actually hurting, and sometimes my neck starts to burn because of it. I'm not sure what to do; any suggestions?

You may be experiencing symptoms of acid reflux or GERD. I recommend taking an over-the-counter medication like Omeprazole (Prilosec) 20mg once daily before breakfast. Additionally, you can try Simethicone (Gas-X) to help relieve gas and bloating. Make sure to avoid trigger foods like spicy or acidic foods, caffeine, and carbonated beverages. Elevating your head while sleeping can also help reduce nighttime symptoms. If your symptoms persist, it's important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation.
