You can treat occasional mild heartburn with over-the-counter medications from a local pharmacy, but if you have been diagnosed with GERD it is a mechanical condition and you will need a Doctor to prescribe you medication or to undergo a surgical procedure.
Some actions you can take to help alleviate mild Acid Reflux symptoms are: avoiding dairy, chocolate, peppermint, fried and fatty foods, and eating smaller meals. Exercising and loosing weight can also lessen the severity of your symptoms, as will elevating your head with pillows while you sleep.
