Acidity (Hyperacidity; Burning in the stomach)

Excessive intake of non-vegetarian, spicy or fried foods and mental tension give rise to hyperacidity. If the condition is not treated in time, an ulcer may develop in the stomach.

Homeopathic Treatment

Check if most symptoms of any of these medicines closely match with most of your symptoms:

Argentum nitricum 30 : Burning and pain in the stomach with severe belching and flatulence (gas). There is a sensation of splinter in the stomach. There is a great liking for sugar, sweets and salt. However, consumption of sweets causes diarrhoea. Diarrhoea is also caused by undue apprehension just before embarking upon an important activity.

Carbo veg 30 : Acidity from consumption of alcohol, coffee, meat and fish, causing incessant sour or rancid eructations. So much gas accumulates in the stomach that the victim feels the abdomen will burst. There is an intolerance of tight clothing around the abdomen.

Robinia 30 : An excellent remedy for severe burning in the stomach, associated with pain in the forehead. Intensely sour eructations occur, frequently culminating into vomiting of a sour fluid. The whole body and the stools smell sour. Indeed, Robinia is the remedy of first choice in the treatment of acidity.

Notes:

1. Consume a simple, bland diet.
2. Discontinue the medicine as soon as about fifty percent improvement occurs. Restart the medicine if symptoms again or reappear later.
3. If none of the above-listed medicine seems matching or if the selected medicine does not help, consult a competent homeopathic doctor.
