Treatment of Pyrosis

Herb used for treatment of Pyrosis

Pyrosis , commonly known as heartburn , is a burning sensation in the chest often associated with acid reflux or GERD (Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease)
It happens when stomach acid flows back into the esophagus, irritating its lining
Treatment for pyrosis focuses on reducing acid reflux and easing symptoms through lifestyle changes, home remedies, and medications

Lifestyle Changes

Avoid Trigger Foods : Common triggers include spicy foods, chocolate, caffeine, alcohol, citrus, tomatoes, and fatty or fried foods
Eat Smaller Meals : Eating smaller portions helps reduce stomach pressure, which can prevent acid reflux
Avoid Lying Down After Eating : Wait at least 2-3 hours before lying down to allow digestion and reduce reflux risk
Elevate the Head of the Bed : Keeping the head elevated while sleeping can help prevent acid from moving up into the esophagus
Maintain a Healthy Weight : Excess weight can increase pressure on the abdomen, leading to reflux
Avoid Smoking : Smoking weakens the lower esophageal sphincter (LES), which can exacerbate reflux

Home Remedies

Ginger Tea : Ginger is a natural anti-inflammatory and can help soothe the stomach
Aloe Vera Juice : Known for its soothing properties, aloe vera may help reduce inflammation in the esophagus
Chewing Gum : Chewing gum stimulates saliva production, which can help neutralize acid
Apple Cider Vinegar : Though acidic, some people find that diluted apple cider vinegar aids digestion and reduces symptoms. Use sparingly and dilute with water
Baking Soda (Sodium Bicarbonate) : A small amount mixed with water can neutralize stomach acid (use only occasionally as it’s high in sodium)

Medications

Antacids : These provide quick relief by neutralizing stomach acid. Examples include Tums, Rolaids, and Mylanta
H2 Blockers : Medications like ranitidine (Zantac) and famotidine (Pepcid) reduce acid production and provide longer-lasting relief
Proton Pump Inhibitors (PPIs) : Medications like omeprazole (Prilosec) and esomeprazole (Nexium) decrease acid production and are used for more severe cases or chronic GERD
Prokinetics : These drugs, such as metoclopramide, help the stomach empty more quickly, reducing reflux (usually prescribed when other treatments don’t work)

When to See a Doctor

If heartburn occurs more than twice a week, if there are signs of bleeding (e.g., black stools, blood in vomit), difficulty swallowing, weight loss, or chest pain mimicking a heart attack, consult a doctor. Persistent or severe symptoms may indicate GERD or another condition requiring medical treatment

With effective management, many people find relief from pyrosis symptoms
