Burning in chest: this is most likely viral but I would recommend that you see your doctor as pregnant women cannot take all over the counter meds.

See a doctor: to check for any infection including strep throat infection I will not recommend OTC medications like cough syrups. May use Tylenol (acetaminophen)
