Suggest Treatment For Lower Abdominal Pain

I have had steady pain in the middle of my abdomen between belly button and rib cage, for the past 5 days. Doesnt seem to be affected by food. Occassionally gets severe for a minute or two then returns to dull pain. A little burping but no real heartburn. Tender to push on area and somewhat hard. No fever. Any ideas?

Hi there!

Thanks for posing your question On HCM!

What you seem to be suffering from is mostly Reflux disease, also called GERD. This generally happens because of a number of reasons. Irregular dietary habits, spicy diet, too much alcohol are just a few of them.

Although the pain doesnt seem to be affected by food, thereby ruling our ulcer; if left untreated, it could result in a gastric ulcer,later on.
,
M treatment would be take one tablet of Pantoprazole 20 mg ,once a day before food, for 15 days.

Hope this helps!
