Suggest Treatment For Severe Abdominal Pain And Sternum Pain
Hello, On July 12th I went to the E.R. due to pains in my right side. they did a cat scan and x-rays of my right side and found nothing. Ever since my entire stomach has been hurting with the main pain in the center right below my breast bone. I am wondering what this could possibly be. The pain is constant and feels almost warm or hot to the touch in that area. Thank you

Thank you for using HCM. From the description given it seems that you're possibly having acute gastritis/gastric ulcer since radiological imaging did not pick up any abnormality. Does the pain get aggravated with intake food? What are your dietary habits? Info regarding the same is required with further evaluation like a upper gastrointestinal endoscopy depending on the discretion of gastroenterologist whose consultation is needed.
