General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

I read carefully your query and understand your concern.

The symptoms seem to be related to gastroesophageal reflux disease.
I suggest using a gastro protector such as Omeprazole 20 mg daily.
I also suggest using antacids such as Maalox three times a day.
I recommend to avoid food that can trigger the symptoms.

Hope my answer was helpful.

If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.

Kind regards!
