Hi i have pain in my esophagus that feels like heartburn, but i end up burping and it reliefs the pain. what is this? how can i stop it?

See below: Your symptoms appear to be secondary to heart burn or GERD. You should be evaluated by a GI physician and you may need a change in your medical regimen if your symptoms are not improved with the current treatment. In the meantime avoid spicy foods, limit your caffeine intake, and keep your head elevated when you sleep.
