To relieve acid reflux and chest burn, eat smaller, lighter meals and avoid spicy, oily foods, tea, coffee, and citrus. Do not lie down for 2 to 3 hours after eating, and try sleeping with your head slightly elevated. Drinking cool water, buttermilk, or taking an antacid can give quick relief. If the burning keeps coming back, consult a doctor.

If you have acid reflux along with a throat infection, eat light, avoid spicy and oily foods, and do not lie down soon after meals.

If symptoms do not improve, get checked.

Pain in your throat and lower abdomen from acid reflux usually happens when acid irritates both the food pipe and the stomach. You can reduce it by eating smaller meals, avoiding spicy/oily foods, cutting down on tea, coffee, and citrus, and not lying down for 2 to 3 hours after eating. Sip warm water, do mild walking after meals, and try sleeping with your head slightly elevated. Talk to your doctor if your condition persists.

Moderate throat and ear pain along with frequent acid reflux often happens because stomach acid irritates the throat and causes pain. Consult your doctor for appropriate medicines. Avoid spicy foods, caffeine, and late-night meals, and sip warm water to soothe the throat.

Acid reflux happens when the valve between your stomach and food pipe becomes weak or relaxes too often, allowing acid to move upward. This can be triggered by heavy meals, spicy or oily food, caffeine, citrus fruits, chocolate, mint, alcohol, smoking, stress, or lying down soon after eating. Overeating, obesity, and conditions like hiatal hernia also make reflux more likely. Eating smaller meals, avoiding trigger foods, reducing stress, and not lying down after meals help prevent it.
