Stomach acid in throat?!


Question: Stomach acid in throat?
Oh, god. 5 minutes ago, I just coughed really hard and a ton of acid came up into my throat. I drank milk right now, but my throat is still burning and it's making me want to cough and it hurts a ton right now.

What's happening? :( This never happened before and I'm scared, a bit of sweating and my throat burns really badly.

Answers:

This has hap pend to me before. Relax. Your stomach acid did burn your throat, but it will get better. Don't have a panic attack. Good, keep drinking milk. It's smooth and cold and will relieve it quick. Don't drink anything carbonated or acid (like fruit juice), until it's healed. You'll be fine.



Never eat too much. Now that it came up be aware that it is unhealthy to eat big meals. The less the better. Have a salad with Ken's Raspberry Walnut vinaigrette or any other vinegar-based dressing. The vinegar in the dressing will neutralize your stomach acids. The burning will go away eventually.



Take some Tums, you'll be fine.
