Hi i have been administered Pan-40 by my doctor yesterday because of frequent bleaching. i sometimes feel something is stuck in my chest and until and unless i burp i do not feel relaxed even if i eat less. Is this something serious i am really worried. I am a 23 yr old female.
Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. Pan 40 is having pantoprazole 40 mg. It is antacid Chat Doctor. Your symptoms are more suggestive of HERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease).HERD is due to laxity of gastroesophageal sphincter. Because of this, the acid of the stomach tends to come up in the esophagus and cause burping, belching, burning chest pain, food stuck in stomach etc. So follow these steps for better symptomatic relief.1. Avoid hot and spicy food. Avoid junk food. Avoid large meals, instead take frequent small meals. 2. Avoid stress and tension, be relaxed and calm.3. Take combination of pantoprazole and levosulperide twice daily on empty stomach.4. Go for walking after meals. Lose weight if you are obese. Quit smoking and alcohol if you have these habits. Don't worry, you will be alright with all these. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
