My father is suffering from severe acidity and heartburn from last 7 months. now it is getting worse. he has nausea but he never vomits. he is 63 years old. He is a diabetic. but his blood sugar is under control. he is not willing to eat anything. he tried several antacids even Pan 80 but nothing works for him. he had antral gastritis before and he recovered from it in 2018. is it really serious? what is it? how the acidity will be cured? please help.

Considering you father's medical history of diabetes and past gastritis, its important to seek medical attention from a gastroenterologist for a thorough evaluation. The doctor may recommend tests to determine the underlying cause, such as GERD or gastritis.
Apart from medications lifestyle modifications, dietary adjustments, weight management, and stress reduction techniques can also help alot..
