Hello doctor! About half a month ago, I was diagnosed with gastroesophageal reflux disease. The doctor at the hospital prescribed medicine to treat the disease, but I used it effectively, but in the last 1 or 2 days, I have had a difficult feeling of belching, gas has reached my chest but I can't burp it out. So the doctor asked me if recurrent gastric reflux is dangerous? Thanks for the advice doctor!

Hello! You should re-examine and consult a gastroenterologist for the most accurate diagnosis.
However, according to your description, it is possible that your reflux is coming back. Gastroesophageal reflux disease is a chronic disease that is difficult to treat definitively.
A combination of medications and lifestyle modifications is more effective than either treatment alone. In addition, you should not eat too full during meals, should not eat within 2-3 hours before going to sleep, should sleep low, exercise healthy and limit stress.
You can go to the hospital of Vinmec Health System to be examined, consulted and answered in detail by Gastroenterologists.
Thank you for trusting and sending questions to Vinmec. Best regards!
