Symptoms Of Acid Reflux

Bloating

Bloating, or the uncomfortable feeling that the stomach is overly full, often accompanies acid reflux. It is believed the increase in swallowing needed to relieve the esophagus of food that has been swallowed causes an increase in the air in the stomach. This increase in air can lead to further irritation of the esophagus as well as stomach lining. Individuals can reduce the occurrence of bloating by consuming smaller meals and making sure not to lie down directly after consuming a meal. Remaining upright after a meal allows the esophagus to naturally push food into the stomach for digestion, decreasing the risk of increased air in the stomach and the feeling of fullness.
