Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
You must be having esophagitis along with gastritis. Take medicine for gastritis and avoid fried and fast foods especially chillies. Avoid hot foods. Avoid coffee and alcohol. Take small meals.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further
