Hello Claudette I share your concern This could be related to faulty dietary habits, lack of physical activity or stomac hyperacidity/ acid reflux. Please follow these guidelines avoidance of smoking alcohol, fatty fried spicy and junk food. Have lots of fresh fruits and raw or steamed vegetables Have plenty of fluids 3 to 4.liters a day which improves digestion and helps removing toxins and morbid matter from the body Avoid excess stress and anxiety by practising some yoga and mediations If it doesn t improve with these life style modifications than you should consult a nearest doctor for endoscopy and an ultrasound in order to establish a diagnosis and further course of treatment. Hope this helps you Best wishes
