Brief Answer:
Possible acid reflux disease.

Detailed Answer:
Hello, Sir.

I can understand your concern.

These symptoms could possibly reflect acid reflux disease.

For a better assessment, I advise you to go for upper GIT endoscopy.

This will accurately detect any kind of gastric erosions which bring about the pain.

Short-term treatment with drugs like pantoprazole will help to bring prompt relief.Please check with your physician if he can prescribe them to you.

Post your further queries if any.
Thank you.
