Michoes Medical Centre: Expert Care for Acid Reflux and GERD

—

by

in

When stomach acid flows the wrong way — back into the tube that connects your throat to your stomach (your esophagus) — that’s called acid reflux. If it happens often and doesn’t get better, it’s called gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Symptoms include chest pain, a cough, and trouble swallowing, especially when you lie down. Sometimes it can bring up bits of food or sour liquid into your mouth.

Michoes Medical Centre is here to help you manage your acid reflux and GERD symptoms. Our team of expert doctors, including Dr. Michael Emusugut, Dr. Nicholas Iyamitai, Dr. Adoa Pious, Dr. Susan Atai, and Dr. Jonathan A., will work with you to create a personalized treatment plan.

In the meantime, here are some tips to help alleviate your symptoms:

**Foods That Can Help or Make It Worse**

* Lean protein like chicken breasts can be easy on your stomach
* Avoid sugary drinks, acidic foods, and red meat
* Try hot ginger tea or dried ginger for a soothing effect
* Low-acid fruits like watermelon, cantaloupe, and honeydew are good choices
* Complex carbohydrates like oatmeal can help with digestion

**Foods to Avoid**

* Bacon, sausage, pancakes, doughnuts, and greasy hash browns can trigger symptoms
* Cream, sugar, syrup, and dried fruit can irritate your stomach
* Fatty foods like butter or margarine can make GERD symptoms worse
* Beans and dried fruit can cause gas

**What to Do Next**

If you’re experiencing persistent or severe acid reflux and GERD symptoms, we recommend consulting with a healthcare professional. At Michoes Medical Centre, we offer expert care and treatment options for this condition.
