Acid Reflux Treatment in Singapore
Acid reflux is a digestive condition in which stomach acid flows back into the esophagus, causing irritation and discomfort. Common symptoms include heartburn, a sour taste in the mouth, chest discomfort, bloating, and regurgitation after meals. Persistent acid reflux can interfere with daily life and may lead to complications if left untreated. At Dr. Harshini Clinic Singapore, every patient receives a comprehensive assessment to identify contributing factors and develop a personalized treatment plan focused on relieving symptoms, improving digestive health, and preventing recurrence.
