The Best Sleeping Positions to Stop Acid Reflux
Acid reflux occurs when stomach acid flows back up into the esophagus (the tube connecting your mouth and stomach), causing irritation. This backward flow is often due to a weakened or relaxed lower esophageal sphincter (LES).A wedge pillow elevates your upper body, using gravity to prevent acid reflux during sleep. It reduces heartburn, coughing, and discomfort by improving sleep posture.
