Burning Throat
8 Answers
Ok this has happened twice now.
I go to sleep and when I wake up early in the morning while still very very tired my throat will burn like mad and it feels like I'm swallowing rocks of lava or something it really is that bad. I always have to go and get some water. Why does this happen? Any ideas on how I could stop it?

Hi Flash
lady_p_gold is probably right......mu husband has had this sometimes, especially if he has eaten say chocolate or some snack and then gone to bed too soon....before the stomach has digested it. He gets to the point of not even being able to speak, because of the burning and having to signal to me to get him some water (melodrama!). He has to drink plenty to clear it, but it always seems to have this affect on him for the reason I've stated..

Hi, I've suffered from acid reflux for about 15 years and a few things help....
from medicinenet.com......
Reflux of acid is more injurious at night than during the day. At night, when individuals are lying down, it is easier for reflux to occur. The reason that it is easier is because gravity is not opposing the reflux, as it does in the upright position during the day. In addition, the lack of an effect of gravity allows the refluxed liquid to travel further up the esophagus and remain in the esophagus longer. These problems can be overcome partially by elevating the upper body in bed. The elevation is accomplished either by putting blocks under the bed's feet at the head of the bed or, more conveniently, by sleeping with the upper body on a wedge. It is important that the upper body and not just the head be elevated. Elevating only the head does not raise the esophagus and fails to restore the effects of gravity. Reflux also occurs less frequently when patients lie on their left rather than their right sides.
Smaller and earlier evening meals may reduce the amount of reflux for two reasons. The smaller meal results in lesser distention of the stomach. Second, by bedtime, a smaller and earlier meal is more likely to have emptied from the stomach than is a larger one
Certain foods are known to reduce the pressure in the lower esophageal sphincter and thereby promote reflux. These foods should be avoided and include chocolate, alcohol, and caffeinated drinks, fatty foods (which should be decreased) and smoking (which should be stopped) . In addition, patients may find that other foods aggravate their symptoms such as spicy or acid-containing foods, like citrus juices, carbonated beverages, and tomato juice.
As well as this - if you keep some antacids beside the bed you can take some as soon as you wake up.....I've fond the best to be either Rennie or Gaviscon (liquid)....I find that the

Sip milk (if you dont have dairy intolerance) that helps with that awful burning feeling. I have tried alot of remedies, zantac can free you of it for days. The best on the market.
I find that eating small and often will help you, cut beck on citric acid, highly spiced and fatty foods. Smoking and drinking all contribute to it.
It is horrible, I suffered with it terribly when pregnant but milk was the saviour for me.
