What Casues Itching And Burning Sensation Inside The Stomach Near Breast Area?
Question: I have an itching burning sensation on the inside of my stomach up near my breast area. I was diagnosed with ulcers about a year ago, i havent got checked up since, i was wondering if this could be my ulcer acting up as i drank a small amount of beer today and some spicy food. I was feeling a bit of pain as well while doing some physical activity earlier today but the pain has subsided, and now i just have this gnawing itching burning sensation that comes and goes.
Brief Answer:
You are right it could be the same ulcer
Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for writing in
You are probably right
The complains are excacerbation of the previous pathology
With ulcer as a diagnosis, I would suggest you keep away from alcohol, smoking, spicy, fermented and fried meals
Take a good proton pump inhibitor like Rabprazole twice a day for two weeks
Add Liquid Sucralfate 2tsf four times a day
Go for a H Pylori test
Hope this helps
Do write back in case of concern
