Stomach burning : Likely gastritis. Can try ranitidine or prevacid or both. Avoid alcohol smoking spicy food motrin like drugs as they exacerbate gastritis. Check for H pylori a bacteria that worsens gastritis and is associated with ulcers .Follow up with gastroentrology may need endoscopy. Note may also be eosinophilic gastritis or esophagitis or food intolerance. if black or blood stool go to ER immediately
