Suggest Remedy For Indigestion With Back And Shoulder Pain
Hi, may I answer your health queries right now ? Please type your query here I suffer with indigestion and this is pretty much all the time. I get a really stabbing pain in my back across my left shoulder blade and in the left side of the chest. This is particularly acute if I am propped up in bed. If I lie flat the problem lessens. I don t take any remedies as I feel they only mask the problem. I eat a healthy diet hardly any alcohol, don t smoke and am not overweight. If I eat or drink milk it seems to go away for a while and then comes on as my stomach empties.
Dear- I reviewed your question in detail and will give you my medical opinion.Indigestion could have multiples causes including slow digestion, gluten entheropathy, celiac disease or just related to the food that we eat. I understand that you eat healthy, but sometimes vegetables like broccoli and cauliflower can make your digestion slow ,produce a lot of gas and give you indigestion. Try to watch what you eat and when you have your symptoms . Back and shoulder pain can be reflex from the gas. I hope my advise has been helpful. Dr.Sara
