Burning discomfort: Burning discomfort in the upper abdomen is not characteristic of gas buildup but is consistent with gastritis(inflammation of the stomach lining) or peptic ulcer. Avoid alcohol, caffeine, nicotine, spicey and greasy foods, aspirin, anti-inflammatory medications like ibuprofen and naproxen. Take omeprazole or pepcid for 7-10 days. If not improved see a gastroenterologist for evaluation and testing.
