Heartburn Part 1 (Teacher: Michael)
"I Keep getting chest pains, doctor!" is
Select
The
a
the
common enough complaint from my patients.
Select
The
a
the
pain they are most worried about is
Select
The
a
the
one that strikes them in
Select
The
a
the
centre of
Select
The
a
the
chest underneath
Select
The
a
the
breastbone because they think they are having
Select
The
a
the
heart attack.
The good news is that it is usually heartburn, which has nothing to do with
Select
The
a
the
heart itself. It is
Select
The
a
the
special type of indigestion where acid from
Select
The
a
the
stomach is regurgitated upwards into
Select
The
a
the
food pipe or oesophagus.
Select
The
a
the
environment in
Select
The
a
the
oesophagus is alkaline, so
Select
The
a
the
excess acid burns
Select
The
a
the
lining. As this tube shares some of
Select
The
a
the
same nerves as
Select
The
a
the
heart, pain is often 'referred' to
Select
The
a
the
area around
Select
The
a
the
heart - hence
Select
The
a
the
name and
Select
The
a
the
fear that it is more serious than indigestion.
Without
Select
The
a
the
doctor to advise you, it is very difficult to tell which is
Select
The
a
the
heart pain and which is heartburn.
Select
The
a
the
symptoms of heartburn are
Select
The
a
the
pain or burning sensation behind
Select
The
a
the
breastbone. This may or may not be associated with regurgitation of food or liquid into
Select
The
a
the
back of
Select
The
a
the
throat or mouth.
Select
The
a
the
fluid may be acid to
Select
The
a
the
taste or watery and regurgitation is more likely to occur when you bend down.
Select
The
a
the
most common cause of this is
Select
The
a
the
weak muscle at
Select
The
a
the
junction of
Select
The
a
the
gullet and stomach - normally, this muscle stops
Select
The
a
the
reflux of acid from
Select
The
a
the
stomach.
