Hi,
It is seen in a condition like acid reflux or GERD. We have to rule out other possibilities including depressive episodes.
As a first line management, antacids like Omeprazole or Pantoprazole can be tried for symptomatic relief.
If symptoms persist, better to consult a gastroenterologist and plan for an endoscopy.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
