Hi,
Welcome to HCM.
You seem to be having gastritis, and need to start on a ppi like pantaprazole or omeprazole on empty stomach twice a day for few weeks.
Also avoid tea, coffee and spicy foods as they will worsen it.
And if the bleeding occurs again then you need to show to a doctor to look for hemorrhoids.
Regards,
Dr. Ashish Verma
