Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
I feel you have gastritis or acid peptic disease. You need to follow some tips:
1. Do not eat spicy food
2. Take medications for gastritis
3. Take little food at frequent intervals. Breakfast around 8 am, a small snack at 11 am, lunch at 1 pm, a small snack at 4 pm and dinner at 8 pm
4. Drink plenty of water
5. Do not smoke, take alcohol or tobacco and even excess of coffee and tea
6. Do not take much of stress. Stress aggravates gastritis
7. Do regular exercise. At least half an hour per day
8. Learn meditation techniques
9. Follow this regularly for 21 days. It is said that anything you practice regularly for 21 days becomes a habit
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Sanjay Kini
