Many people suffer from reflux esophagitis.
You are suffering from reflux esophagitis.
How is the medicine prescribed to you working?
Is it working?
“It works”
It was good to say.
Then, has reflux esophagitis improved since then?
Can reflux esophagitis be cured with medicine?
What are the effects of reflux esophagitis drugs?
Reflux esophagitis medications have an anti-inflammatory effect.
you
“Most of the symptoms of reflux esophagitis come from inflammation, so if you suppress that inflammation, you can heal it, right?”
you may say.
That is right.
The medicine for reflux esophagitis has the effect of suppressing the symptoms caused by the painful inflammation that is currently occurring, so taking medicine often makes it easier.
But you have to take action while suppressing the inflammation.
“Action? What?”
It is a “curative action”.
As mentioned above, reflux esophagitis medicines are medicines to eliminate worrisome symptoms “now” and “immediately”.
But think about it.
Why are you inflamed?
of.
Earlier, I mentioned “fundamentally cure action”, but it means “action to fundamentally eliminate inflammation”.
The current reflux esophagitis medicine is not a cure.
The medicine is just used to calm the inflammation of the esophagus caused by reflux of stomach acid for some reason.
Unless we solve that “something”, we will not be able to escape from reflux esophagitis for months or years.
So what is that “something”?
that is
Posture.
“What is the relationship between posture and reflux esophagitis?”
most people would say.
But relationships matter!
Almost all people who come to the hospital with reflux esophagitis have a round back.
“What does that have to do with reflux esophagitis?”
Unlike Japan, insurance doesn’t work in America.
Most of them are self-medicating.
That’s why it’s not as easy to get medicine as it is in Japan.
If you are diagnosed with reflux esophagitis in the United States instead of medicine, what do doctors prescribe is “posture correction”.
“You have reflux esophagitis”
“Sensei, what should I do?”
“Please spend your time with good posture”
Well, I’ve never actually seen it, so it’s a guess, lol.
It seems like this.
It seems that medicine is not easily issued like in Japan.
“Is reflux esophagitis improved by improving posture?”
People with reflux esophagitis at our hospital are getting better within a month just by correcting their spine and improving their posture.
It’s relatively simple to improve reflux esophagitis.
Why don’t you try it too? ?
good posture
Place the back of your hand on your waist.
Tighten the muscles on both sides of the spine just above the back of the hand and arch the spine. there is).
