What Causes Nausea And Discomfort In The Upper Abdomen?

My 85 yr old mother is in wonderful health until recently. For about a month she has experienced nausea, discomfort in her upper abdomen after eating she feels like the food gets stuck....her bra feels tight. She is normally very active but since the onset of this she doesn t feel like eating & has lost 10 # s. Today we went shopping & after about 30 minutes she became week, light headed, & nauseated.

Hello,

It can be gastritis. She should avoid fatty, oily and high-calorie diet. Have some walk after having food instead of taking rest. Have multiple small meals instead of heavy meals.

Have regular sleep habits and avoid stress. she should also have also an ultrasound of the abdomen to rule out other causes and get once examined by a local doctor.

You can get prescribed tab Pan DSR 40 mg before breakfast once a day for 2 weeks.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Sagar Makode, Cardiologist
