Brief Answer:
It seems to be due to gastritis

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.

I have carefully gone through the details provided and understand your concerns. It seems that you could be having gastritis. Gastritis means that the inner wall of the stomach is inflamed due to the action of stomach acids and a slight pressure on it, be it due to staining of the abdominal muscles while passing stool, or when your dog or son hits my stomach hit your stomach even inadvertently.

My suggestions would be:
* Avoid long gaps between meals. Take small but frequent meals.
* Avoid chilli and spicy foods. They trigger excess gastric acid secretion and may also mess up with digestion.
* You need to take plenty of green leafy vegetables in your diet. It will provide adequate roughage and will lessen your problems.
* You need to avoid stress. Stress is a leading cause of hyperacidity.
* PPIs like omeprazole 20 mg once a day before breakfast. You need to take it for one and a half months. You need not worry about side effects.
* Regular morning walk and exercise is essential to maintain proper bowel movements.

Hope that helps.
