Brief Answer:
Acute Gastritis is likely possibility

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

It seems like you have acute gastritis. This is the most likely diagnosis of what you are experiencing.

In such a case, I would advise you to take a tablet of Omeprazole 20 mg right away on empty stomach along with Domperidone 10mg to control the nausea. The medicine is available over the counter. You can purchase it at a local pharmacy.

Also, you must drink plenty of water orally to get rid of the burning feeling caused by excess acid secretion from stomach.

Hope this helps you.
