Heartburn is often experienced after eating something spicy, overeating, alcohol consumption, or tight clothing. The condition causes a burning sensation, tightness, or discomfort in the chest, mid-chest, neck, and throat. The discomfort usually intensifies in the evening, post lying down, or right after eating something. 

Heartburn is often not serious but may be chronic in nature and lead to extreme discomfort. Dietary changes, lifestyle changes, exercising, and the introduction of healthy digestive supplements to the diet can significantly contribute to managing the condition.
