Pain normally worsens at rest
• The stomach acid which is supposedto stay in the stomach is likely toescape into the esophagus when onebends over or lies down and thiscauses heartburn
• This is the reason why most of thepeople with chronic heartburns raisethe heads of their beds to avoidheartburns

Post meal pains

Cough
• Most of the common respiratory symptoms like wheezing and chronic cough can be caused by heartburns
• The main reason behind this is because stomach acids are getting into the lungs

Asthma
• The wheezing and coughing from heartburns can worsen and become asthma although it is not clear
• Acids in the stomach can trigger the nerves located in the chest to constrict the breathing tubes

Nausea
• Nausea is usually associated with many things which can be more harder to conclude as acid reflux.
• If one experiences nausea immediately after meals, it is an indication that it might be an acid reflux

Extra saliva
• Just in case one experiences or suddenly produces extra saliva, then it could be a water brash and this is an indication of acid reflux
• This normally happens because the body is trying to remove the irritants in the esophagus
