General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi.

This could probably be related to a gastric condition so the main approach would be to drink plenty of water, and avoid spicy/fried/fatty/oily food. Along with this an antacid like ranitidine or omeprazole 15 minutes before each meal should certainly help.

Best wishes.
