You are most likely having hyperacidity due to stomach acid not being neutralized by food. Avoid spicy, fried food after breaking fast, focus more on fresh fruits.

Burning in the stomach with nausea during fasting is often due to acidity or gastritis when the stomach stays empty for long. Try taking light food at iftar, avoid very spicy/oily food, and drink enough fluids.
If pain or vomiting continues, you should get checked. Please consult me for proper evaluation and treatment.

Your symptoms of burning sensation in the stomach, nausea (feeling like vomiting), and abdominal pain, especially during prolonged fasting, are most commonly due to **Gastritis or Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease.
During Ramadan fasting, the stomach stays empty for long hours and continues producing acid, which can irritate the stomach lining and lead to these symptoms. A recent panic attack can also increase stomach acid and worsen reflux or gastritis symptoms.
This combination of fasting + stress/anxiety + irregular eating often triggers acid-related stomach discomfort.
Next Steps
• Start an acid-reducing medicine such as Pantoprazole once daily before the pre-dawn meal (Suhoor).
• If nausea is significant, a medicine like Domperidone may help reduce vomiting sensation.
• During non-fasting hours, drink adequate water to prevent dehydration and reduce acidity.
• If symptoms persist more than 5–7 days, consult a doctor to rule out conditions like **Peptic Ulcer Disease.
If pain becomes severe, associated with repeated vomiting, black stools, or persistent fever, seek medical care urgently.
Health Tips
• Break your fast with light foods first (dates, soup, fruits) rather than spicy or oily meals.
• Avoid tea, coffee, fried foods, and very spicy food at Iftar, as they increase stomach acid.
• Eat smaller portions and chew slowly instead of a heavy meal at once.
• Practice relaxation or breathing exercises, since anxiety and panic can worsen stomach symptoms.
If you would like, you can also book an online consultation so I can review your symptoms in detail and guide you with a precise treatment plan that allows you to continue fasting comfortably and safely.

Your symptoms of burning in the stomach, nausea, and stomach pain are most commonly related to gastritis or acid reflux, which can happen during prolonged fasting such as during Ramadan. When the stomach remains empty for long hours, acid continues to be produced, and this can irritate the stomach lining, leading to burning sensation, nausea, and sometimes a feeling of vomiting. The stress or panic attack you experienced before Ramadan may also contribute, because anxiety can increase stomach acid and make the stomach more sensitive.
Next Steps
At this stage, the condition usually improves with short-term treatment and dietary care. You may take Pantoprazole 40 mg once daily in the morning before food for 10–14 days to reduce stomach acid. For nausea and vomiting sensation, Domperidone 10 mg before meals if needed can help. If there is gas or heaviness, a digestive enzyme or antacid syrup after meals may provide relief.
During Ramadan, try to avoid very spicy, oily, fried, or acidic foods at iftar and suhoor, as these can worsen acidity. Break the fast with light foods such as dates and water, and avoid overeating immediately after fasting. Drink adequate water during non-fasting hours and include simple foods like rice, oats, bananas, curd, and soups which are gentler on the stomach. Caffeine, carbonated drinks, and late heavy meals should be minimized.
Health Tips
If the pain becomes severe, if you develop persistent vomiting, black stools, or if symptoms continue beyond 1–2 weeks despite medication, then a medical evaluation may be required to rule out gastritis, peptic ulcer disease, or severe reflux.
