How to manage ulcer-induced heartburn?

This Premium Q&A, reviewed and published, features a real conversation between an iCliniq user and a physician.

Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I have been suffering from heartburn for the last two years, along with oversleeping and laziness. I have lost interest in things and have been dealing with mental stress. I have undergone two endoscopies, and the doctor diagnosed me with an ulcer. What is the remedy? I am currently taking Shatavari Lehyam.

Please help.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern.

Heartburn is caused by an ulcer, and mental stress can also worsen the condition. If you are already receiving treatment for the ulcer, that is good. If not, start treatment as soon as possible, or the problem may worsen. Along with your prescribed medicines, you can take Yashtimadhu churna (Yashtimadhu root extract), one teaspoon twice a day with lukewarm water after meals for two weeks.

This will help you a lot.

Kindly follow up after two weeks.
