Brief Answer:
Possibly Gastritis, But rule out cardiac causr for pain

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thank you for your query at healthcare magic

Your symptoms are most suggestive of gastritis.
Gastritis occur due to the increased acid secretions irritating the stomach lining. Gastritis is treated with antacids like Zantac.

But since you are a 50 year old male, I would like to rule out any cardiac cuses of chest pain particularly coronary artery disease before initiating treatment for gastritis .
ECG is required at this time to rule out cardiac issues.

I recommend that you go the emergency room to get ECG done.

Hope I was able to answer your question
Please feel free to address any more concerns
Regards,
Dr.Lekshmi
