Hi, Your symptoms are nonspecific, but these may be suggestive of gastritis, HERD or hiatal hernia, so you should do gastrostomy to evaluate it more accurately. This is caused by irritation of stomach mucosa by certain food or medications, stress and smoking. So firstly it should be treated with home remedies and changing dietary habits. You need to avoid fried food, carbonated Chat Doctor.  You should eat more milk products, vegetables and boiled food. Also, certain antacid medications may be required such as Pantoprazole or Sanitizing. In cases of severe pain, the diagnosis should be established with endoscopic tests which include gastrostomy or barium swallow test. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
