You may be suffering from colitis with acid reflux. It may be due to infection or ulcerative colitis or chrons disease. Until examination is done it is difficult to say what it is.
Weight reduction, regular exercise with eating of plenty of fruits and vegetables intake may useful. Use tablet Nexium before breakfast for one week. Get it done endoscopy for to know ulcers or to know how pylori infection or hiatal hernia.
Take medication for colitis. If symptoms not improved please consult your gastroentrologist he will examine and treat you accordingly.
