Just make sure your fitness routine isn't so bouncy or jarring that it aggravates your symptoms. If you're over 50 or show any symptoms of serious disease, your doctor may suggest an endoscopy, an exam in which he or she slides a thin tube with a tiny camera on the end is slid down your throat to take pictures of your stomach. If you're taking any medications that can upset the stomach, your doctor may be able to offer an alternative. Finally, you can take a few steps to give your stomach a break. If you smoke, stop.
Smoking blocks the stomach's natural healing process and greatly raises the risk of ulcers.
Also, avoid heavy drinking and try to cut back on stress. The relief you get will be well worth the effort. Consumer Health Interactive References Bytzer P and NJ Talley. Annals of Internal Medicine. May 1, 2001.
