  • How Much Does Ksl Hair Transplant Cost In Edinburgh

    I am curious to know if the weight of heavy breasts can exacerbate symptoms of acid reflux. I have noticed that my symptoms improve when I am not wearing a bra, although not significantly, and I find myself lifting my breasts to alleviate some discomfort. I haven't come across this question before, so perhaps it's unique to me.

    I have not come across any association between acid reflux and breast reduction surgery. Therefore, I do not believe it will have a significant impact either way.

    Gastric reflux is associated with abdominal pressure and positioning. There is no known association between breast reduction and acid reflux, which is why you may not have come across any questions on this topic.

    There is no direct relationship between breast size and acid reflux. However, the weight of large breasts may affect comfort if they prevent proper posture. Insurance coverage for breast reduction is typically based on medical criteria, not unrelated conditions.
