Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your situation and problem. In my opinion you are having HERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease). It is due to laxity of gastroesophageal sphincter. Because of this, the acid of the stomach tends to come up in the esophagus and cause the symptoms like burning epigastric, central chest pain. So try to follow these steps for better symptomatic relief.1. Avoid hot and spicy food.2. Avoid large meals, instead take frequent small meals.3. Avoid stress and anxiety.4. Start proton pump inhibitor.5. Go for walk after meals.6. Keep 2-3 pillows under head in bed to prevent acid reflux.7. Avoid alcohol and smoking if you have these habits.
