Detailed Answer:
Hello Sir,
Thank you for writing in to HCM .
This is Dr.Riyanka answering your query.

Kindly consult a physician for the following tests:
1. liver function test
2. stool analysis for faecal fat and ova cyst(certain drugs like antibiotics and pain killers should be avoided before this test). hence kindly give the sample for stool analysis and then take medications.
3. Test for H.pylori bacteria - urease breath test.

Kindly consult a gastroenterologist for investigations like:
1. Upper GI endoscopy.

The following over the counter medications may be helpful:

1. Tablet omeprazole 20mg daily in the morning atleast half an hour before breakfast for 3 weeks.
2. Syrup digestive enzymes twice daily after meals(over the counter drug).
3. Tablet lactobacillus twice daily for 7 days(over the counter).

Hope this answers your query.
Do write for more doubts.

Regards,
Dr.Riyanka
