Had indigestion all night and it's making my stomach bloody sore. Can't nip out to the shops either for anti acids. Any help?

My mate had a bad problems with acid reflux (I think it is) and was given lists of foods which balance the acid/alkaline. Can probs Google.

Try milk if you have some.

Buscopan works for me to an extent.

I did a quick google and it came up with ginger and garlic and other herbs I don't have handy

Will try some milk

Do you have any Manuka honey? A teaspoon or two really helps indigestion and acid reflux.

I had this regularly and started drinking probiotic drinks, just the cheap ones from lidl or also, and they have made a real difference to the problems Iwas having with my stomach. I usually drink 2 per day, one in the morning and the second after my last meal of the day.

Possibly a long shot, but you bake? If you have any Bicarbonate Of Soda, a teaspoonful in a glass of water sipped slowly will help.

ps: It won't taste nice.

I was just about to say bicarbonate of soda.
It works quite quickly too.

A long satisfying parp might help too....

Another one for baking soda. It is almost an instant fix.

milk and digestive biscuits.

Following. DS has this and is under 12 so can't have the magical gaviscon. Very interested in Manuka honey thank you!

Peppermint tea always works for me
