Various minor ailments can ruin the quality of life for modern people. Major examples include nasal inflammation (rhinitis), chronic headaches, and dermatitis. I have had a hard time lately because of reflux esophagitis. Major symptoms include heartburn, nausea, and frequennt burping. When esophagitis symptoms occur, you must treat them with prescription meds. But more that anything, it's important to maintain a healthy diet and a healthy lifestyle. To prevent a relapse of my relfux esophagitis, I try to steer clear of flour-based foods. I also abstain from caffeine and fizzy drinks. I try to maintainn good posture and avoid lying down for at least three hours after a meal.
