I've been experiencing chest pain when I move my upper body, and if I press lightly on my chest, it sometimes makes me burp. It's been worrying me a bit, and I'm not sure what could be causing it. Could it be something serious or just something minor? Would love to get your thoughts on what might be happening.

I'm experiencing this strange heaviness on the right side of my stomach, especially when I'm walking or running. It's there even when I'm sitting, but not as intense. I know I have a gastric issue with GERD, could it be related to that? I don't drink or smoke, and there's no pain, just this heavy feeling. Strangely, I have no issues on the left side. All my tests, like blood tests and the stomach ultrasound, are normal, they only found GERD with the endoscopy. I'm really stressed out thinking about what this could be. Is it a big deal? Would love some insight.

Symptoms you are experiencing are due to acid reflux from GERD. To help alleviate your symptoms, you can try taking a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) such as Omeprazole 20mg once daily before breakfast. Additionally, you can take an antacid like Tums as needed for immediate relief. It is also important to avoid trigger foods that worsen your symptoms, such as spicy or acidic foods, and to practice stress-reducing activities like deep breathing exercises or yoga. If your symptoms persist or worsen, it is advisable to follow up with your gastroenterologist for further evaluation and management.
