Dyspepsia

Dyspepsia

Dyspepsia is the medical name for indigestion. Most people will suffer from indigestion at some point, and usually it is not a sign of anything more serious and can be self-treated.


Symptoms of dyspepsia usually occur after eating or drinking and will include heartburn – a painful burning feeling in the chest, feeling full and bloated, feeling nauseous, belching and passing wind, bringing up food, or bitter tasting fluids – acid reflux. The acid in your stomach can irritate the stomach lining or your throat. This is the cause of indigestion and gives a feeling of pain or burning. Medication, smoking, alcohol, and pregnancy can all make indigestion worse.


To treat indigestion, there is usually no need to see a doctor. Try cutting down on coffee, tea, alcohol, and fizzy drinks. Propping your head and shoulders up whilst in bed can stop the stomach acid rising while you sleep.  Those who are overweight can try to lose weight to help their indigestion. Try to avoid eating at least three hours before going to bed, avoid rich, fatty, or spicy foods. Aspirin and ibuprofen can both make indigestion worse. Avoid smoking if you are suffering from indigestion.


Over the counter medications can help with the burning feeling or pain that comes with indigestion. These medications, called antacids neutralize the stomach acid. If your indigestion is recurring or you are pregnant, you should see a doctor for help.
