Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of pain and burning sensation in the stomach. Well the symptoms you mention in query can occur due to many reasons like gastroenteritis, irritable bowel syndrome , viral pharyngitis and food poisoning. Need not to worry. I would suggest you to stay hydrated with lots of fluid , take benadryl twice a day , avoid food like nuts and seafood and take ibuprofen or acetaminophen. You should take plenty of fluids such as oral rehydrating solution. Consult general practitioner for proper examination. Doctor may order blood test , stool test and take history. Doctor may prescribe antiemetic drug , antibiotics and anti pyretic. Doctor may also refer you to gastroenterologist or ENT specialist if the problem will be related with gastric or ear.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
