I'm sorry to hear that you've been experiencing severe acidity for several days and have had ongoing issues for the past three years. Persistent acidity can be uncomfortable and may indicate an underlying condition that needs proper evaluation.
Here are some steps you can take:
Given the duration and severity of your symptoms, I strongly recommend consulting a gastroenterologist. They can perform appropriate investigations to identify the cause and prescribe suitable treatment, which may include medications like proton pump inhibitors or H2 blockers.
If you experience alarming symptoms such as difficulty swallowing, persistent vomiting, weight loss, or black stools, seek immediate medical attention.
Taking these steps and consulting a specialist will help manage your acidity effectively and improve your quality of life.To narrow down potential causes, we will need some more information.Please tell me your age and gender.
