Hello! Mr.Satish. Thanks for putting your query in HCM. I am a Gastroenterologist (DM).
What all you have to do is:
1.Avoid fatty meals
2. Don't lie down soon after meals for at least half hour
3.Take small and frequent meals, instead of full meals at a time
4. wear loose clothes
5. If you are overweight or obese do weight reduction with dieting and exercise
6. Avoid smoking if you do
7. Do regular aerobic exercise at least 30 minutes / day
8.Observe when you take milk or milk products whether these symptoms worsen, if yes then please avoid them
9. Avoid carbonated drinks, wine or beer
10. take black tea and add cardamom and ginger to it and take them with meals
11. Don't forget to close mouth while chewing food and Eat slowly
Among the medications:
1. take a prokinetic agent like domperidone
2. And a proton pump inhibitor like rabeprazole
3. Make your stool soft if they are hard in consistency by taking some laxative
4.Take Tablets that contain enzymes protease, amylase, lipase with meals
If not relieved with these advise then you have to seek the opinion of a Gastroenterologist
I hope I have answered your query and this will help you. Remain in touch and get-well soon
