Hello and welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.

I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

I share your concern. Looking at your description it might be related to acid peptic disease due to acidity or stress induced gastritis. In my opinion you should take anti-acidity medicine like pantoprazole or ranitidine group of drugs with antacids for 5 to 7 days. You should take small fruit diet or juices, soups or appetiser have lots of fluids to maintain good hydration.

Meanwhile try to avoid excess stress and anxiety and remain cheerful. Avoid smoking and drinking.

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

Best wishes,
Dr. B R Hudda
