دڵەکزێ (ترشەڵۆکی گەدە)
A burning feeling in the middle of the chest caused by stomach acid coming back up.
Heartburn happens when the valve between the stomach and the esophagus does not close fully and acid flows back up. Fatty and spicy food, smoking, and lying down right after a meal trigger this problem. Dividing food into several small meals helps prevent heartburn.
