Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
It could be due to gastritis or gastric ulcer. You need to perform an upper GIT endoscopy to detect the cause and to get a CT scan to rule out the presence of tumors for the ease of your mind.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
