Detailed Answer:
Hello and Welcome

I appreciate your concern

Based on your description, it appears to be GERD. PPIs like lansoprazole along with pro kinetics such as domeperidone can be advised for 2 weeks. Most likely the symptoms will subside. If they persist then H.Pylori workup, ultrasound abdomen pelvis and an upper GI endoscopy can be considered in consult with a gastroenterologist.

Wishing you best of health

Thanks
