Have a query?

After a night of excessive drinking, I have throat pain, difficulty swallowing, and acidity. What should I do?

Asked by Male, 24 · 23 days ago

After heavy drinking, throat pain, difficulty swallowing, and acidity are usually due to irritation of the throat and stomach acid. Drink plenty of water, avoid alcohol and spicy or acidic foods, and eat soft, bland meals. If pain, difficulty swallowing, or fever persists beyond a couple of days, see a doctor promptly.

It sounds uncomfortable to have throat pain, difficulty swallowing, and acidity after drinking excessively. These symptoms may be due to irritation of your throat and acid reflux caused by alcohol.

  • To ease acidity and protect your stomach, you might consider a medication like Omez-DSR Capsule, which combines omeprazole (a proton pump inhibitor that reduces stomach acid) and domperidone (which helps stomach motility). However, this should only be taken after consulting a gastroenterologist or your primary care doctor.
  • Meanwhile, avoid alcohol, spicy or acidic foods, and eat smaller, bland meals like khichdi or curd rice to soothe your stomach.
  • Drink plenty of water and avoid lying down immediately after eating to reduce acid reflux.
  • If your throat pain worsens, swallowing becomes very difficult, or you develop fever or breathing problems, seek urgent medical attention.

Please consult a gastroenterologist for a proper evaluation and personalized treatment plan.
