Hello
Belching and chest pain is most likely due to GERD,but it is important to exclude cardiopulmonary causes also.
It is important to know you age.As you have food stuck in throat,you may need barium swallow imaging.
You need proper clinical examination and investigations.
Investigations include routine hemogram,random blood sugar,liver function test,lipid profile,renal function test,chest X-ray (PA view),ECG,ECHO,TMT,upper GI endoscopy.
Treatment depend upon findings.
You may need proton pump inhibitors like tablet pantoprazole.
You should take your food at regular intervals.
Get well soon.
Take Care
