Detailed Answer:
Hello ma'am and welcome.

Thank you for writing to us.

I have gone through your query with diligence and would like you to know that I am here to help. Burning in your stomach soon after eating gives rise to a number of conditions, but in my opinion this could quite possibly be due to peptic ulcer disease in the stomach region.

When symptoms like:

+Burning sensation after meals, pain that feels like hunger pain (cramping pain)
+Abdominal bloating or nausea after eating
+Weight loss
+Loss of appetite
+Belly pain that can last for minutes or hours. Duration of time without any pain, but then it returns after a few days

are present then we should suspect an ulcer. I would thus recommend the following ma'am:

+An upper GI endoscopy to help diagnose/rule out peptic ulcer disease and other conditions that can cause a presentation similar to yours
+Drink plenty of water
+Avoid stress as much as possible
+Avoid carbonated drinks
+Avoid spicy food
+Avoid fatty/oily/fried food
+Take acid reducing medications like omeprazole, lansoprazole, pantoprazole, etc; when you experience symptoms
+If you are on any medications, then speak to your doctor to help provide medications that can protect your stomach lining

I hope you find my response both helpful and informative ma'am. Please feel free to write back to me for any further clarifications, I would be more than happy to help.

Best wishes.
