Thanks for your question on Health Care Magic.
I can understand your concern.
It could be GERD you will benefit from antacids.Also eat small frequent meals instead of large meals. Exercise regularly , do not lift heavy weights, keep your head end elevated by 2-3 blocks or pillows, give a gap of 2-3 hours before you sleep after your dinner.
Don't worry, you will be alright.
Hope I have solved your query.
Wish you good health. Thanks.
