Hi,

Thanks for your query.

The symptoms you have are seen in stressful periods. Headache, nausea and burping due to increased acidity are typical.

The frontal headache sometimes can be due to vascular cause which is a common presentation in stress.

All you need is to relax. Do practice mind relaxation exercises like Yoga and Meditation.
Do have adequate sleep and avoid taking coffee or other acidity inducing agents.

Do consume ample amount of water, take antacids like PEPTO or GELUSIL to counteract the effects of increased acidity.

Hope I answered your query.

Please let me know if there are any other concerns.
