###Human: Is there any way to cure reflux esophagitis? ###Assistant: Hi. I have gone through your query in detail. Usually, reflux esophagitis is reported based on the Los Angeles classification, which does not have a grade called M, but going through the report it is mentioned minimal changes of reflux esophagitis with the lax sphincter. Your treatment for H. Pylori is appropriate based on the rapid urease test result. Usually, when a person has H. Pylori infection, the acid production is suppressed by the infection (chronic gastritis, mucosal atrophy is a sign of that). Once it starts getting cleared from the mucous membrane, it is quite common to find the reflux symptoms, especially heartburn worsening, because that acid production is improving due to clearance of infection from the mucosa, hence even though you may be on acid-suppressing agents you might have heartburn. It is a temporary phenomenon and would improve over the next couple of weeks. Kindly continue with the treatment and you may add 10 ml of Gaviscon syrup (if you are abroad you can get Gaviscon tablets too) to be taken three times after major meals for a week.
