What Causes Burning Sensation In The Stomach
ok. I have a burning sensation in my oesphagus/stomach area. This has occurred as a result of eating extremely hot mashed potato. It has been with me for approximately three days and I feel it day and night. I don t think it is a reflux as it has occurred before this incident. I was wondering if have done some sort of damage to my digestive tract?

Hello,
It is the acute gastritis phase.
Precise care steps to be followed for a better outcome:
- diet measures to avoid spices kinds of stuff
- PPI as omeprazole or pantoprazole
- antacid as Mylanta or else
- hydration care
- avoid any NSAID type medications like ibuprofen or else for pain relief as they can flare up the issue more.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
