I would advise you to go to the ER and assess your situation and you should undergo investigations such as a chest X-Ray to rule out any underlying problems. These following lifestyle changes may help in your situation:
- Don't skip meals and don't crash diet
- Reduce/ Avoid spicy,fried, fatty, junk and oily food
- Exercise regularly and maintain a healthy weight as per your BMI
- Increase daily intake of water to 3 liters
- Avoid/Stop smoking and drinking if you have the habit
- Reduce stress through methods such as yoga/meditation.
- Avoid painkillers as it will increase your gastric problems at this moment.
- Limit drinking coffee, tea and carbonated drinks to once or twice a day
If the condition is persistent or worsening kindly visit the nearesr ER
