What Could Be The Cause Of Stomach Fullness And Pain ?
HI, I have been having this stomach fullness and occasional pain and also passing gas for more than 2 weeks. I went to the family doctor and she initially diagnosed and suggested Gas-x (semithicone) or bepto bismal. I tried with Gas-x and it didn t work. Then I tried with bepto bismal, it worked for few days, After I discontinued taking bepto bimal, the slight pain and gas continued. This time the doctor diagnosed and given nexium for 2 weeks. and also Doctor has taken the blood work and the results came with NO anemia . The doctor has tested the rectum for any blood, but it also came negative. I started taking nexium for last 3 days, now I am getting more gas pressure , burping, fullness, lightheaded and nausea . What should I do? shall I stop taking nexium? what could be the cause of my stomach fullness and pain.

from the symptoms it appears you are having dyspepsia flatulence
you need an usg exam of gall bladder to rule out gall bladder disease
constipation should be taken care of
small frequent non spicy easily digestible food is advised
with the medicine you can add domstal 10 mg itab 3 times daily
digiplex t 1 tab 3times after food
no alcohol ,no smoking ,no hot drinks or hot foods
if the symptoms persist endoscopy exam of stomach and duodenum to be done and tests for h pylori
