Drinking a glass of cold milk or cold water can help soothe the burning sensation in your chest and back quite quickly. Just try to sit upright and do not lie down immediately.

I didn't know acid reflux could actually cause pain in the back. Is it a sharp pain or more like a dull ache that spreads?

If you have severe back pain along with chest tightness, sweating, or difficulty breathing, do not assume it is just gas or acidity. Go to an emergency clinic immediately to rule out any cardiac issues.

I know it feels terrifying when the pain radiates to your back because you start worrying if it is something worse like a heart issue. Take slow, deep breaths, sit up straight, and try an antacid gel to see if the pain subsides.
