General Surgeon 's  Response
Hello,

As first-line management, you can take antacids like Pantoprazole or Omeprazole for symptomatic relief. If symptoms persist you can consult a gastroenterologist and plan for an endoscopy.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
