Heartburn No More
by ebisi mark (2019-08-06)
"Indigestion" is sometimes used to describe heartburn, but this term is imprecise and people use it to describe anything from diarrhea to belching. "Dyspepsia" describes pain in the upper abdomen (below the chest) that resembles that of a peptic ulcer. It is important not to confuse dyspepsia with heartburn because the treatments are quite different.
