General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi.

I have gone through your query. Based on the symptoms you have mentioned, it seems like you have gastric ulcer or some gastric issue. This can cause a burning pain that radiates to the back.

USually, the following can help with this. -
Taking a bland diet. One example is the BRAT diet which contains bananas, rice , applesauce, and toast
Drinking lots of water
Drinking cold milk
Avoiding oily and spicy foods
avoiding excessive coffee

In case this does not help, you would need to see a doctor to confirm the cause. The doctor may order a 24 hour manometry and this can help to confirm the peptic ulcer. Once confirmed, the doctor may start triple therapy to help with treatment.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr. Vignan Rachabattuni
