Im 18 years old. Im facing acidity or some people call it as gastric. Im facing this problem from past 3-4 years. It troubles me a lot. It troubles below the rib cage. I consulted many doctors. They gave some tablets or syrups etc. But it not fully recovered. It gets back well but it comes at least once in 3 months and stays for 1 whole week. I do not have any bad habits like smoking, consumption of alcohol etc. Please provide me with a very helpful answer.
