Hi,
I have gone through your query. Burning sensation in stomach is due to acidity and sometimes it may be acidic reflux (GERD). It usually occurs in those who have irregular eating habits or intake of spicy and junk food. In my patients i prescribe tab pantoprazole 40 mg daily before breakfast for 15 to 30 days. If it does not subside i would suggest you to go for upper GI endoscopy.
Avoid eating spicy and junk food for the time being.
Do consider a positive feedback as a credit to my work. Let me know if you have any further questions.
