Heartburn?: In order of increasing strength & potency, try an antacid (calcium carbonate), h2 blocker eg ranitidine, and/or proton pump inhibitor (ppi) eg Omeprazole to see if acid is cause of burning sensation. However, if you feel weak, lightheaded, dizzy, faint etc or notice that you're passing bloody or black tarry stools, you need to get evaluated immediately/emergently. Also, don't smoke (ever) or drink.
