General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
It appears to be due to the gastric irritation due to the drugs used for the flu or the irritant foods, or low food.
I advise you to consult your doctor for diagnosis and treatment.
I usually prescribe to my patient with such symptoms omeprazole, domperidone, and antacid gel.
Take more of green leafy vegetables, pulses, sprouts,and
protein rich foods to hasten the recovery.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
