General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

You can have gastritis like inflammation of gastric mucosa. It can lead to acid reflux and so burning pain can occur. I suggest you to take rabeprazole like antacid after consulting your doctor.

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

Take care

Regards,
Dr Parth Goswami, General & Family Physician
