Hi.

If there was fever, then gastritis should be suspect and the triple therapy to treat gastritis should be initiated. Just antacids will not do, but an investigation called an endoscopy would be the best judge to find the cause and accurately direct treatment, if possible consult a gastroenterologist or another physician.

Best wishes.
