HI
Thank for asking to HCM
It may not be diverticulitis at this time, it could be some kind of infection but chances of this too minimal, it may be gastritis, or at the most it may be acid peptic disease in all three conditions wait and watch is the best way, and most of the time it goes away unless if the infection is severe, you better go for blood test (routine ) it will necessary for to rule out the infection part, meanwhile you can try acetaminophen with dicylomine this will give you symptomatic relief have good day
