Acid Reflux at Night – Causes & How to Sleep Better

  25-Oct-2025

Many people experience acid reflux and burning chest discomfort at night, making it difficult to sleep. When stomach acid flows back into the esophagus while lying down, it can cause severe irritation and regurgitation.

Common Causes of Nighttime Acid Reflux:

  • Heavy dinner or eating too close to bedtime
  • Spicy, oily, or acidic foods
  • Being overweight
  • Hiatal hernia
  • Smoking or alcohol intake
  • Stress and poor sleep habits

Symptoms You Shouldn’t Ignore:

  • Burning sensation in the chest (heartburn)
  • Sour taste in the mouth
  • Cough or throat irritation at night
  • Difficulty sleeping due to discomfort

At Relief Gastrocare, Dr. Sandeep Patil provides accurate diagnosis through Upper GI Endoscopy and personalized treatment plans to help patients overcome chronic acidity and sleep peacefully again.
