Gastritis , worm infestation can be the reasons.

Detailed Answer:
Hi

Thank you for asking HCM.

I have gone through your query. Your problem can be due to gastritis or worm infestation. Taking anti helminthic drugs like Albendazole as a single dose will be helpful for worm eradication. You can also take gastric acid lowering drugs like Ranitidine (zantac) or Esomeprazole ( Nexium ) for one week will be helpful to clear gastric irritation.

Do you have pain or nausea after fatty food intake. ?
Do you consume alcohol regularly. ?

Let me know if anything not clear.
I am happy to help you.
Thanks.
