● Don't overeat. When there is too much food in the stomach, stomach acid will be forced into the esophagus. The more food in the stomach, the more stomach acid is squeezed into the esophagus. There may be many reasons for stomach pain, but for those who suffer from stomach pain occasionally, it is mostly because they eat too much and eat too fast.
● Don't lie flat. When you feel uncomfortable, you may want to lie down and rest. Never! Keep upright, so that gastric acid can stay in the stomach more easily. When you have to lie down, such as sleeping, it is best to keep your head about10-15cm. You can use stones to support the foot of the bed or put it under the mattress. The effect of heightening the pillow is not good. This makes the sleep slightly inclined to avoid the recurrence of stomach pain.
● Taking antacids sold in drug pharmacies can quickly relieve discomfort for people who occasionally have headaches and stomachaches. All kinds of Chinese medicines sold in pharmacies to help digestion are mostly safe and effective. The acidulants often recommended by experts are mostly the mixture of magnesium hydroxide and aluminum hydroxide. The former is easy to cause constipation, and the latter will produce diarrhea. The combination of the two just neutralizes each other's side effects. Although mixing these two ingredients has few side effects, it is not appropriate to take them continuously for more than one and a half months. Because the effect of acid-making agent is very strong, it may cover up more serious problems. Experts believe that liquid acid-making agents are usually more effective, although they are not as convenient as tablets.
● Don't eat dinner before going to bed. Never eat dinner within 2 hours before going to bed. Satiety combined with gravity will promote the reflux of gastric acid into esophagus. ● Eliminating the stress of life is a major culprit of stomach pain. Learning some relaxation methods can make the chemical action in the body out of balance and restore balance again.
● If excessive fat accumulates at the waist, it will oppress the stomach, and as a result, the gastric juice will flow to the esophagus. In addition, loosening the belt can relieve heartburn and you can wear suspenders instead.
● Pay attention to certain drugs. Some prescriptions prescribed by doctors may aggravate heartburn, including some stimulants and tranquilizers. If you are suffering from heartburn and taking some kind of doctor's prescription, you should ask a doctor to evaluate whether it is appropriate. ▲ cuttlefish bone 90g, Fritillaria 30g and Glycyrrhiza 30g.
