Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX
Welcome
I have gone through your query
Based on the information it is more likely to be related to your diet.
I would suggest few measures that will be beneficial.

A. Consume plenty of water. Keep a water bottle on the working desk and keep sipping water on and off as required. I also advise to drink a glass of water an hour before and after food to make sure of intake of adequate water.
B. Avoid excess consumption of tea/ coffee/ hydrogenated drinks.
C. Avoid smoking and alcohol, if any.
D. Maintain a gap of atleast 2 hrs in between dinner and going to bed.
E. Avoid spicy and oily food for few days till the symptoms are resolved.
F. Avoid or reduce the intake of meat, dairy products, and add more fiber to your diet. Eat lots salads, vegetables, fresh fruits,
G. You can take probiotics like Sporolac or Ecobion which will be beneficial and you can take curd.
H. Avoid gas producing foods like peas, cabbage, legumes, etc. Eat light meals prepared under hygienic conditions. Avoid eating fast and talking while eating. Regular exercise. Kindly follow this measures you should be fine.

If it doesn't help you can take cremaffin syrup, for this you have to see doctor to get valid prescription.

This provisional advice provided by me is based entirely on the input provided to me. I would suggest examination by the doctor.

I hope this suggestion might be of some help to you. Please accept my answer in case you do not have further queries.

Take care.
