Is it through that Heartburn can lead to death? What do you do when you have heart burn?

scopusng: Is it through that Heartburn can lead to death? What do you do when you have heart burn?

technically, a heartburn has nothing to do wit the heart...
The stomach produces hydrochloric acid. As the food is churned in the stomach, the contents with the acid may get to the oesophagus (where food passes from mouth to stomach), to give a burning sensation. Since the oesophagus is in the chest, pple think it is the heart that is affected, hence the name.
Heartburn can kill only if u dont take any medication, therefore the area may erode and cause bleeding.
What u need is an antacid, which can be gotten from any pharmacy around.
P.S: if symptoms persist after three days consult a specialist

Almost everyone has heartburn sometimes. Heartburn is a painful burning feeling in your chest or throat. It happens when stomach acid backs up into your esophagus, the tube that carries food from your mouth to your stomach. If you have heartburn more than twice a week, you may have gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). With GERD, the muscles at the end of your esophagus do not close tightly enough. This allows contents of the stomach to back up, or reflux, into the esophagus and irritate it.
Pregnancy, certain foods, alcohol and some medications can bring on heartburn. Treating heartburn is important because over time reflux can damage the esophagus. Over-the-counter Antacids may help. If the heartburn continues, you may need prescription medicines or surgery.
Your doctor will most likely suggest that you try one or more lifestyle modifications to treat your heartburn before considering any medications.
