Hi,
Thanks for writing to HCM.
That is mostly due to gastritis. Take a course of antacids like omeprazole or pantaprazole and see, it it improves then continue it for a month.
Regarding your numbness in arm, that can be due to compression during sleep or work or due to vitamin deficiency. Maintain a good posture during sleep and work and eat healthy and balanced diet.
Avoid tea, coffee, soda drinks and spices.
