Acid reflux does not cause asthma symptom. But if gastric contents aspirate in the respiratory tract, then it may present as wheeze, cough like asthma. Still the chest examination finding is different for both cases that a doctor can understand only! so, for a conscious individual, acid reflux will not cause asthma symptom.

A bloated abdomen always disturbs normal breathing. So if you are having gastric issues, kindly eat right, healthy food, take regular walks after meals. Wishing you good health
