I have a severe burning sensation in my stomach. Can you suggest some simple home remedies to treat it?

No, there is no simple remedy for this because there is no diagnosis. A proper work up is needed to make a diagnosis before treatment can be offered.

Severe burning in the stomach (I'm assuming above the belly button) is what we call an alarm symptom and should be checked out by a doctor. It can mean inflammation, ulcer, or even bacterial infection. This would be a time I highly recommend you see a doctor. Do not take ibuprofen, motrin or aleve (only use tylenol if you need something for pain).

Please stop eating foods that are high in acid. Avoid alcohol.
