Hi,
Thank you posting your query with us.
I would suggest you to be on antacids or PPIs for a week or two. If you are taking PPI, take it once daily half an hour before food for 2 weeks. You are required to have food on time. Nothing big but even a small meal would do. Leaving your stomach empty would cause it to secrete more acid which will cause more gastric irritation.
For food- i would suggest you to take high fiber diets, with less of tubers, oily food. Try to avoid more milk. Drinking more water would ensure you an easy bowel movements.
Home remedies- You can also drink hot water infused with ginger and honey which will help soothen your digestive system.
Kindly revert back for any further queries you may have.
Thank you
