Dear Friend.
Welcome to Healthcaremagic.
Hi, I am Dr Anshul Varshney , I have read your query in detail , I understand your concern.

This can be due to any of the following:
1. Acid Peptic Disease
2. Tuberculosis
3. Psycogenic
4. Malabsorption syndromes

Tell me following:
1. Your age, occupation.
2. Any history of difficulty in deglutition?
3. Any fever associated?
4. Any loose stools associated with abdominal pain?
5. Any history of smoking?

Revert with these answers and till then you can take a combination of Pantoprazole and domperidone once a day.
This would help in relieving the abdominal burning that is probably becuase of acidity.
This is my personal opinion based on details available here. If you still have any other query, you may please ask me and answer these questions preferably in point wise manner.
Stay Healthy.
Dr Anshul Varshney , MD
