Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
I would like to tell you that burning sensation with foul smell can be most likely due gastritis or lung infection which requires evaluation for proper treatment.
Kindly consult a Physician for physical and diagnostic evaluation. Also get an ECG and Echocardiography done to exclude and heart event.
I hope this information will answer your query.
Kind Regards
Dr. Bhanu Partap
