Vomiting, Severe Headaches With Sharp Pain Under Bottom Of Rib Above Hip Bone. Cause?

I m a 23 year old woman. I ve been having alot of trouble keeping food down for the past few days and have been getting bad headaches almost every morning. I of course take advil and the headache goes away but no matter what i eat, drink or take i get nauseated very quickly. But mainly my question is about this, when happen to get sick i start getting and kind of sharp pain under my bottom left rib but above my hip bone ... that and I ve been kind of gassy... Basically is it just a flu bug or something? because I don t feel sick per-say. just nauseous and headaches.

Hi,
Thanks for wring your query.

After reading your post, it seems that your symptoms are due to increased acidity and gas production in your stomach.

Following precautions will be helpful :-
1. Avoid spicy and oily foods.
2. Do not miss a meal.
3. Avoid mental/emotional stress.
4. Avoid smoking/alcohol, if any.
5. Do not eat fast and do not talk while eating.
6. Avoid gas producing foods like peas, cabbage, lentils, etc.
7. Drink at least 8-10 glasses of pure water daily.

You can take an antacid like Omeprazole 40 mg along with Domperidone 10 mg once a day before meals.

If the symptoms persists get yourself clinically examined and investigated.

I hope this is helpful to you.
Thanks.
