Asking for Someone Else, Wife, Female, 38 years old, Kampala
Asalamualikum warahmatullah wabarakatuh, my wife has Acid reflux and legs tighten after standing for long periods, she has been using omeprazole. We live in Uganda and we need an online doctor who can treat her symptoms. We did LFT & RFT, i have attached her reports. She also had Hpilori some time back.
What you can do * Eat smaller meals and avoid lying down for 2–3 hours after eating. * Reduce spicy/oily foods, excessive tea/coffee, soft drinks, and very acidic foods if they trigger symptoms. * Avoid smoking and alcohol. * If appropriate for you, an acid-reducing medicine such as omeprazole is commonly used, but the dose and duration should ideally be decided by a doctor, especially if you have already taken H. pylori treatment. * After H. pylori treatment, doctors generally recommend a stool antigen or urea breath test to confirm that the infection has been eradicated.
