Concerns About Frequent Heartburn
Though heartburn is common and most people experience it at one time or another, persistent and
frequent heartburn that is, two or more days a week, even though you've tried some over the counter treatments, such as antacids, and changed your diet—could be
acid reflux disease.
In addition to the discomfort it may cause you, acid reflux disease is often a chronic and complex condition. It can lead to serious complications over time. Some people feel symptoms more frequently than others, but not feeling symptoms all the time doesn't mean you could not have serious damage. People with acid reflux disease are at greater risk for Barrett's esophagus, a condition which can lead to esophageal cancer.
If you've tried treating your persistent heartburn with
over the counter medications, such as antacids, but have not gotten the relief you want, you should talk to your doctor. Only your doctor can diagnose your condition.
